Re: How to make the sample application

[Hashem Nasarat <hnasarat gmail com>]

(Just a quick note)
Makefile.am is an automake file. From briefly glancing at it, it appears
to reference git.mk in the root of the gtk+ repo.

So perhaps the example applications aren't meant to be built separately,
and there's some way to build them all together.

Also, usually Makefile.am files are accompanied by configure.ac files
and autogen.sh files (in which case you'd run ./autogen.sh; ./configure;
make; make install)
