@section Dependency Tracking
-OMK automatically handles tracking of dependencies of files in compiled
-projects. It uses gcc's @option{-M@var{x}} options to do this for object

Dependencies are also maintained for libraries and binaries. To find the
dependencies, OMK parses linker map files, so a change to some library
