title: Searching a better way of arranging dependencies and object files in nmake on windows
body: <p>We are using nmake on windows to build our c applications.</p>
  
  <p>Up to this time we had the following setting:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>app1_build: module1.obj module2.obj module3.obj ...
  cl app1.c module1.obj module2.obj module3.obj ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Over the years these 2 lines grew more and more (maybe 40 or more object files)  and now it is difficult to understand.  </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to arrange/structure it in another way (maybe vertically) so that it gets laid out in an more optimal way.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a lot in advance</p>
