% ls /usr/bin/*make -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 119092 Mar 20 16:41 /usr/bin/bsdmake -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 184648 Mar 20 16:41 /usr/bin/gnumake lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 7 Apr 22 10:28 /usr/bin/make -> gnumake So the devtools suite offers both GNU and BSD versions, though the one you get when issuing a simple 'make' command is GNUmake. (A lot of users are having problems from another copy of BSDmake in /usr/local/bin, and now that I realize that you already have BSDmake in /usr/bin, I can't figure out why there needs to be a second copy of it elsewhere. Weird.) In any case, if you have a listing similar to the one above, and you don't have anything for /usr/local/bin/*make, then you're fine for this matter. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache / mod_perl / http://homepage.mac.com/chdevers/resume/ "More war soon.
