I don't know of any (portable) way to find this out, actually. You might try running make with -d; some of the messages it prints when it decides whether a file is out of date or not will contain fractional seconds if it was compiled with support for subsecond timestamps, and just simple integer sections if it wasn't. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
