Hello Stephan, thank you for your answer. I found a way that works following your first suggestion:
Get rid of the newlines?
Here it is: define LONG_TEXT first line second line one more line and so on endef define linefeed endef # two empty lines !! LANG += $(subst $(linefeed), >> Test.txt ;echo ,$(LANGER_TEXT)) LANG += >> Test.txt all: @rm -f Test.txt @echo $(LONG_TEXT) .PHONY : all Thank you very much Martin _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
