I don't think so - but that's different to typing 'make now', which IMO *could* be an honest mistake. I mean, you can see how someone who hasn't used make before could think that sounded feasable. Maybe he's trolling (ok, not in the usual/strict sense of the word, but for want of a better description - you know what I mean), and maybe he isn't, but let's give him the benefit of the doubt :) Cheers, Gareth > > > On Sat, > > 07 Dec 2002 21:59:50+0000 Jim Cheetham<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Sun, Dec 08, 2002 at 10:44:40AM +1300, Kevin Wilkinson wrote: > > > Nick Rout wrote: > > > >Simply type make now.
