Yes. AFAIK. I'm never seen Microsoft C [1-4].x myself but AFAIK nmake was able
to find MAKEFILE starting from first version written back in 1983 for Microsoft
C 1.0 (Microsoft C 1.0 was created to rewrite Windows 1.0 (initially Windows
was written on Pascal (in 1983) but when Turbo Pascal completely and forever
pushed MS Pascal from marketspace (yes, MS was not invincible then) Windows
was rewritten on C but since there was no Microsoft C yet this took two years
(to create Microsoft C 1.0 and then recreate Windows 1.0 with Microsoft C 1.0)
and thus Windows 1.0 was out only in 1985... BTW MS VC++ is only marketing
term. Internally it's Microsoft C/C++ Version 12.00.8168 ...
