There is no builtin function in GNU make that will do this. On UNIX, you can simply use the $(shell ...) function to invoke the standard UNIX utility "find" which does exactly what you want. I don't know if Windows has a similar utility or not. I'm sure someone has created a port of GNU find for NT, if you want to go that way. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
