I'm slightly lazier than that. Once I have /one/ file, I write a makefile.

To be more precise, I'm even lazier than /that/ - I run a program to 
write the makefile on my behalf:

makegen foo > Makefile

which generates a simple makefile for turning foo.c into foo (the 
executable file).

(If I were lazier still, I would rewrite makegen to write everything to 
Makefile by default.)

And before anyone asks, yes, I can feed multiple files to it (the first 
is taken as the executable output filename); yes, I can feed extra flags 
to it via -e=whatever; and yes, I can tell it about libraries using 
-lwhatever.

I'm not saying it generates a /great/ makefile. But it does all that I 
require of it.
