Hello make-w32,

I'm using the GNU Make version 3.80 and Mingw on WinXP - no
msys.  The system boots with comspec set to cmd.exe.  When
I'm in a 4NT shell, where I run make, 4NT becomes comspec.

4nt.exe is in my path.  Here's a simple makefile:

-------------------------------------
.PHONY: clean
clean:
        @echo SHELL     = $(SHELL)
        @echo COMSPEC   = $(COMSPEC)
        [EMAIL PROTECTED] /?
-------------------------------------

If I just type make, the output is:

-------------------------------------
SHELL     = sh.exe
COMSPEC   = C:\util\4nt\4nt.exe
The help info for CMD's del
-------------------------------------

Running: make SHELL=4nt.exe

-------------------------------------
SHELL     = 4nt.exe
COMSPEC   = C:\util\4nt\4nt.exe
The help info for CMD's del
-------------------------------------

Everything I've tried thus far, results in CMD.EXE being
used as my SHELL.

Is there a way, that works, to choose the shell desired?

Bill
