Go to Configure -> Preferences and select 'Tools'. Now click on Add and choose 'Program', browse to make.exe. Click Apply, Make will be added to the Tools in the treeview on the left. Select it, make sure 'Parameters' is empty and 'Initial folder' contains $FileDir. Press OK.
Now whenever you run the Make tool, it will run from the directory of your top-level document.

just that the gcc and libraries wasn't in the path.
i am using cygwin environment.
but fixed it with a simple batch file.

@echo off

path=c:\cygwin\bin;\cygwin\usr\local\bin;%PATH%

make %1

where %1 is the parameters to the makefile.
