The idea is that you must know what these are, or at least be able to compute them from other, known file names using functions like patsubst, etc. After all, if you can write a chain of pattern rules that starts with a known target and works back to a source file (known or not) you can perform that exact same operation on the known target with patsubst functions to derive all the intermediate filenames. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
