Yes, make tried to run the command "ln -s foo.cc . ln -s bar.cc .". > -- now the string is basically "ln -s <foo> . ; ln -s <bar> ." > or similar? I guess that's a bit different than I was expecting.. I might Now make is doing the equivalent of: sh -c "ln -s foo.cc .; ln -s bar.cc .;" make still only sees it as one command and only invokes one shell to run it, but the shell sees it as multiple commands because that is what ; means to the shell. > also play around w/ using $(shell) as well.. I don't see why that would be necessary. Brian _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
