hello, I would like to test if a library file exist. To make this, I have used the function "wildcard" who return me nothing if the file doesn't exist. My problem is when the full path of the file contain a space. In this case, the function wildcard test separately the different parts around the space and so see nothing... To manipulate a list of files with spaces I have replace the spaces by a pattern and the others spaces are only to separate the elements of the list. So my question is : Can I use a specific pattern to replace the space who will be recognize by the function wildcard as a space in my file name (and not as a space-separation of the list) ? (like "\ " or "%SPACE%", etc.) Or what other solution is possible to test if a file (with spaces in his name) exist ? I use my makefile on Linux, Mac and Windows (and a stup** man has called the main directory "Program Files"). Best regards, Fabien
NB: sorry for my English, I hope you can understand me... _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
