+jam: Jam - Make(1) Redux
+jam:
+jam: Jam is a program construction tool, like make(1). Jam recursively builds
+jam: target files from source files, using dependency information and updating
+jam: actions expressed in the Jambase file, which is written in jam's own
+jam: interpreted language. The default Jambase is compiled into jam and
+jam: provides a boilerplate for common use, relying on a user-provide file
+jam: "Jamfile" to enumerate actual targets and sources.
