Hi,
this might be an odd request, but please consider it nevertheless.
There is a very popular web comic involving the make command:
http://xkcd.com/149/
It would not be useful, but entertaining, if the make command would behave
like this. So I’m proposing the following behaviour:
If make is run with the arguments "me a sandwich", and there is no target
called "me", the error message is replaced by "What? Make it yourself.", if
SUDO_COMMAND is unset, or "Okay." if that variable is set.
I think this does not distrub any operations, as it only modifies the error
message. If there is a target called "me", make should behave usual.
If you would be willing to include such a "feature", I’ll provide a patch.
Thanks,
Joachim
