What do you hope to do with this list? You cannot, in general, use GNU make (or any other standard make) with pathnames containing spaces. It just won't work. Pathnames in makefiles are really parsed as text strings, and virtually every function and internal processing splits the strings on whitespace. Further, there is no 100% recognized and reliable way to quote whitespace in these strings. If you can't get rid of the spaces in your pathnames you'll need to find an alternative tool for building your code. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
