Could anybody give me some links to understand the makefile?

I was used to write, compile and debug with IDE but now I have to change. Could someone tell me what is the relationship between ./config and the makefile? How to use them? Any piece of information is appreciated.

Here is a link that I found really useful:
It is a tutorial on the gnu build tools, aka autoconf + automake.
