Yeah - IIRC, Makefile "best practices" ought to be to avoid recursive make, *except* that "include" is a non-standard GNUism, and there's no equally good way for a plain POSIX-conforming make to incorporate per-subdirectory files into a single top-level Makefile. But with automake, if the inclusion can be done at automake time while still generating a completely portable Makefile, that's probably a better way to go. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
