Is there a 'make' flag to list all make targets for any given directory containing Makefile* ?

grep ':' Makefile  ...comes pretty close.

Another reader suggested I cat the file... I take it the answer is "no." Specifically I am looking for a quick way to see the make targets as 'make' would accept them while hunting for 'uninstall' and other surprises. I see that it gets complicated as i.e. "_legacy" is a legitimate target along with "buildworld." More to investigate!

It's a brilliant mechanism but I get lost chasing variables that may span /usr/src/Makefile.inc1 and /usr/share/mk/ and...

What problem are you trying to solve?

My understanding of the system for the purposes of world reduction and custom release engineering. My work is 1/2 way to being an informal howto on the subject.

Thanks to all who responded.

Michael.
