3.82 is now available: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-make/2010-07/msg00049.html > I used a very old make version before and wanted to upgrade.

But this doesn't seem to work. If it says make: c:windowssystem32cmd.exe: Command not found then you might instead try writing forward slashes: SHELL = c:/windows/system32/cmd.exe But, as long as you're using cmd.exe instead of sh, it would probably be better to use a native 'make'. It should build right out of the box, or you can download a precompiled binary here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/make/make-3.82-mingw32/make-3.82-3-mingw32-bin.tar.lzma/download _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
