Yes I meant command script. What I meant with zero whitespace footprint is that if I'm using a make defined function in $(shell), sometimes whitespace becomes a hidden issue when I apply a makefile function in a shell. If I'm echo some text or do some sed script, that extra space can mess things up. Tab-command was a bad descriptor of what I meant. Thanks for your response.
