This flag begins with double-dashes. Double-dashes introduce a long option, so make considers the entire text to be a single option; that is, make parses this as one option "--ignore-errorsuuzzz". This is the standard parsing for long options in GNU programs. The other example begin with a single dash; a single dash introduces a string consisting of one or more single-letter options, so make interprets it as "-i -g -n -o -e -e -r -r -o -r -s -u -u -z -z -z". This is the POSIX standard method of parsing options. http://www.gnu.org/s/libc/manual/html_node/Argument-Syntax.html -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
