<title>Command explanations</title>
-<!--
-<para><userinput>sed: </userinput> The sed command here searches for the
-string "$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o" and replaces it by "$(CC) $(CFLAGS)
-$(LDFLAGS) -o" in the Makefile file. We make that modification so it
-will be easier to link bzip2 statically.</para>
-
-<para><userinput>...Makefile | make -f -:</userinput> Makefile
-is the last parameter of the sed command which indicates the file to
-search and replace in. Sed normally sends the modified file to stdout
-(standard output), which will be the console. With the construction we
-use, sed's output will be piped to the make program. Normally, when make
-is started, it tries to find a number of files like Makefile. But we have
-modified the Makefile file so we don't want make to use it. The "-f -"
-parameter tells make to read it's input from another file, or from stdin
-(standard input) which the dash (-) implies. This is one way to do it.
-Another way would be to have sed write the output to a different file
-and tell make with the -f parameter to read that alternate file.</para>
-
-<para><userinput>LDFLAGS=-static:</userinput> This is the second way we use to
-link a package statically. This is also the most common way.
-The -all-static value is only used with the binutils package and won't
-be used throughout the rest of this book.</para>
-
-I HAVEN'T REMOVED THIS AS WE MAY NEED TO COPY SOME OF IT TO A LATER
-PACKAGE. IS THIS THE CASE?

<para><userinput>make CC="gcc -static": </userinput>This is the method
we use to tell gcc that we want bzip2 to be linked statically.</para>
