makefile-syntax is a little bit like the whitespace programming language: it does matter whether you are using tabs or spaces. this is: the commands that belong to a build-target MUST be indented using TABs, spaces won't work. this makes it hard when emailing makefiles inline (the mail-reader/writer software is likely to replace tabs by spaces, which makes the makefiles useless). for you, this means that you should replace the leading spaces in line:9 (and others) with a tab in your favourite text-editor (which should NOT be M$ word...) fmgasd.r IOhannes _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
