-{{{kmk}}} is the {{{make}}} program in [wiki:kBuild kBuild], e.g. it is what you invoke from the commandline or editor to perform the actual build. {{{kmk}}} is based on the latest [wiki:GNUmake GNU make] release, currently 3.81, but provides a bunch of additional features required by the [wiki:kBuild kBuild] makefile scripts.

-Why not use vanilla [wiki:GNUmake GNU make]? There are several reasons:
- * When [wiki:kBuild kBuild] was reborn using [wiki:GNUmake GNU make] (an earlier incarnation of the project was based on FreeBSD make) the 3.81 release was about 2 years ahead. [wiki:kBuild kBuild] relies on many features introduced after 3.80. Requiring 3.81 to be installed still isn't a viable option.
- * Be able to add new features without having trouble getting them accepted or having to wait 3-4 years until the next [wiki:GNUmake GNU make] version is released and makes it out to all the corners of the world.
