3.1 Building Custom Interpreters

The make file built by Makefile.pre.in can be run with the "static" target to build an interpreter:

Any modules defined in the Setup file before the "*shared*" line will be statically linked into the interpreter. Typically, a "*shared*" line is omitted from the Setup file when a custom interpreter is desired.
