make files

What's the difference between a file called "mionome.make" and a file
called "Makefile"?

When the content is the same, are these definible makefile in the same
way?

Thanks for any answer.

What's your C++ _language_ question?

This is off-topic as it isn't a C++ question. Having said that, the
difference is that you don't have to specify Makefile as part of the
make command, whereas you have to explicitly specify mionome.make.

% make # looks for and uses Makefile if
present
% make -f mionome.make # uses mionome.make
