Much appreciate you for the reply. At the first example we had n too: /root> export MAKEFLAGS=--ignore-errorsuuzzz /root> make -f makefile23 k But MAKEFLAGS was not set to n. How make parses the string, "--ignore-errorsuuzzz"? It adds, hyphen first, it becomes: "---ignore-errorsuuzzz" then it chops the words, is that right? what will be the words? How n is extracted from "---ignore-errorsuuzzz"?
