How to make a Makefile shorter?

Question

I've got the following Makefile:

all: hello.exe hellogtk.exe hellogtktng.cs

hello.exe: hello.cs
 gmcs hello.cs

hellogtk.exe: hellogtk.cs
 gmcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 hellogtk.cs

hellogtktng.exe: hellogtktng.cs
 gmcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 hellogtktng.cs

clean:
 rm -f *.exe

I'm only starting to learn how to write Makefiles, and I feel that all this is a bit repetitive. How would Makefile pros go about doing this?

Answer 1

all: hello.exe hellogtk.exe hellogtktng.exe

%.exe: %.cs
 gmcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 $<

clean:
 rm -f *.exe
