DOCS: include a sample "Makefile"?

[Jonathan Kulp]

What do you guys think of including a sample Makefile somewhere in the 
documentation?

Today I made my first makefile by using one of Graham's (for his thesis) 
as a model, and it occurred to me that it might be nice to have a sample 
available somewhere in the docs for others like me who have had no 
experience creating them.  I already have a nice shell script to handle 
compiling my latex/lilypond-book files, but to share complicated 
projects like this with others it seemed like a good idea to put a 
makefile in there.  I only had Graham's because he shared his thesis 
source files with me a while back.  I've looked at Nicolas Sceaux's 
makefile for his operas, and at the GNUMakefile in the LP documentation, 
but they're so complex that I couldn't use them as models for my own.

My initial thought is to put the sample makefile in either 1) 
application usage, where it gives the lilypond-book commands, or 2) LM 
"handling large projects."

If this sounds like a worthwhile idea, I will come up with a minimal 
sample,  write a brief blurb about how/why to use them, then create a 
patch to run by the devel list.  Any input on this would be welcome.

Jon
