One of the main tool for that is documentation. Although we have long  
command names, it is not obvious for everyone what each function is  
supposed to do (means, at least what it returns, what will be fed by the  
eval).
A glossary of the functions and a pointer to a Good Use(tm) of it in an  
existing makefile may help a lot.
