Thanks ... that was a great suggestion; I had a pending patch implementing it,
which I have now committed. :-)
The message is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Resources]$ make
This is gnustep-make 1.13.0. Type 'make print-gnustep-make-help' for help.
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Resources]$
The target name is inspired by Dennis suggestion for using print-xxx for
targets printing
stuff; to avoid conflicts with targets that users might have added (or might
add in the future)
I went for a rather long target name ('print-gnustep-make-help'). ;-)
The target to print a gnustep-make variable (which can then be used to compute
compile/link
flags) will have a similar name, maybe something like
'print-gnustep-make-variable' ? :-)
I'm not entirely settled on the name, so if anyone has got a very clever
suggestion, it would
be welcome.
Thanks
