On reflection, I think you're right. > Trouble is that "all" recursively >descends the directories so it may not be the best choice. It takes less than a second to do 'make all' when there's nothing to do on my system (which isn't a speed demon by any stretch), so I don't think it's a big deal. (As it happens, I'm not a fan of recursive make at all (see the classic 'Recursive make considered harmful' paper at http://www.pcug.org.au/~millerp/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html [PDF]). But that's definitely a post-1.2 argument.) -- PMM _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
