Hi Justin, This question was asked and answered a few months back. Short answer is: there is no way within GNU make to get that info. However could you wrap things with shell scripts and use shell variables to achieve what you want? -raleigh _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
