Hi, I have a variable that contains my archive library names as targets; ie libMylib.a(myobj.o). I would like to use patsubst to strip of the succeeding "(myobj.o)" but, I'm having trouble telling patsubst to include the parens in the patterns exactly so that I end up with libMylib.a ( and I can do a file command like rm on it. How do I do this and am I on the wrong track? -- Barry D.
