How does tab completion work? I've tried `make -f gmakefile sys<Tab>` in zsh and bash but got nothing.
Thanks to everyone who worked on this, I just have two other questions/requests: - What’s the best way to update the test definitions after fiddling with /*TEST*/ blocks? It would be nice if gmakegentests.py would run automatically when sources are newer than their tests. - Is there a technical reason suffixes can only be specified at the top level? It would help with concision if subtest suffixes could append to their parent suffixes.

I have this script ~/bin/diffupdate: #!/bin/sh args= if [ "$1" = "-u" ]; then args="-u" shift fi new="$2" ref="$1" diff $args "$ref" "$new" ret=$? echo "Updating $new --> $ref" mv "$new" "$ref" exit $ret Then I run make -f gmakefile test search=plex% DIFF=diffupdate It prints the diff and replaces the reference file (first argument) with the second. > 3) How do I give extra arguments with the make interface, rather than > test_harness? That is, run some modification of the test and still do the diff, but don't change the reference output? I have used PETSC_OPTIONS for that. make .... PETSC_OPTIONS=-more_magic > Once I have all the functionality of my Python stuff, I will throw it away.
