nmake is a Windows utility for automatic building of packages from
sources.  It performs a function similar to the Unix make(1) utility
and comes with both the MicroSoft Fortran and MicroSoft C development
environments.  If you're attempting to build the netCDF package on a
Windows system, then you should already have this utility.
