168a954913SmrgThe X Window System used imake extensively up through the X11R6.9 release,
178a954913Smrgfor both full builds within the source tree and external software.
188a954913SmrgX moved to GNU autoconf and automake for its build system in 2005 for
198a954913SmrgX11R7.0 and later releases, but still provides imake for building existing
208a954913Smrgexternal software programs that have not yet converted, though we are not
218a954913Smrgactively maintaining it for new OS or platform releases.
