Hi, some people in the office use GNU make 3.79.1 on Windows 2000 machines.
They also set the environment variable MAKE_MODE to DOS. I got interested and tried to find out what other variables influence the behaviour of "make", but did not find anything in the documentation. A "grep" through the sources showed that the combination "MAKE" and "MODE" only appears once in the sources, in a file that does not seem to influence the behaviour. As i don't think they need this variable in the Makefile itself i think that they can also leave that environment variable unset. Is there any influence of environment variable on the behaviour of "make"? Of course there is an influence if a variable is used in the Makefile itself, but aside from that, is there an influence? Best regards, Torsten. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
