I can't seem to make *any* makefile, not just the one for the library. I try
and compile the makefile for the demo game, and it gives this output:

E:\djgpp\wall30w5\DEMO>make
make.exe: *** No rule to make target `demo.exe', needed by `all'.  Stop.

I don't know the first thing about makefiles, so I can't work out what I
need to do to get the files compiled. AFAIK, I've read all the readme files
and done everything that was asked.
