On a POSIX system it's removed. eb> As long as tab is converted to space then not converting \\n to a space eb> would be ok. eb> So: eb> echo foo\ eb> bar eb> prints "foo bar" while eb> echo foo\ eb> bar eb> prints "foobar" OK... if that's the way you want it I guess it's your port. This is not compatible with UNIX/POSIX, however, which means that makefiles written on one system will have even less chance of working "out of the box" on the other system. My preference would be to keep this behavior identical between systems (that is, remove the TAB and do not add a space)... one less difference between ports is a good thing in my book. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
