Comment(by leif):
W.r.t. `README.txt`:
I'd quote `make` (`'make'`), and directly refer to the GNU make (online)
manual, i.e., its ''Options summary'' section (which IMHO explains `-j`
and `-l` etc. quite good):
[http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Options-Summary]
`s/`''so for example if you set''`/`''so for example if you do''`/` (or
''... type'')
Perhaps also add that it's usually ok (or advantageous) to use more jobs
than the machine has CPU cores (minus already running processes, or the
current system load), especially if disk access isn't very fast [provided
the machine isn't low of available memory or actually RAM].
