Cool idea! We use it in all our Makefiles and its way better than all this fgrep/sed stuff!

Our Makefiles continue to grow more and more so I would like to propose a new feature for sections.

##
## Docker
##

# Start server
start:
	docker-compose up -d --remove-orphans

Which would print something like:

Usage: make <command> [ARGUMENT1=value1] [ARGUMENT2=value2]

Commands:

 help                                           # Print help

 **DOCKER** (bold and pink?)

 start                                          # Start server

Hi! Thanks, I'm glad you found this solution useful! :)

Nice idea, I like it. This week I'll think about how to implement it.

I will also have a look because I never heard about Crystal, and it seems interesting.

Yay, PRs are welcome! :) Crystal is simple yet powerful language. Best in write/run speed ratio, I think. And just as beautiful as Ruby. :)
