_______________________________________________________
Details:
When I recently read the `make' (V 3.81) texinfo manual I noticed a few
inaccuracies/miswordings/typos:
==========
3.5 The Variable `MAKEFILE_LIST'
Examples use `lastword' but footnote refers to `word' and `words'
----------
3.9 How `make' Reads a Makefile
Expansion of deferred construct => Expansion of a deferred construct
----------
4.2 Rule Syntax
in the prerequisites lise => in the prerequisites list
----------
4.9 Special Built-in Target Names
Para for `.SUFFIXES' repeated under `.SECONDEXPANSION'
==========
Attached is a small patch correcting all these.
