Not really, the way I do it is that I have a $HOME/etc/Makeconf with a
lot of personal rules like those for .Snw files, and in my .bashrc I
define

fmake ()
{
    make -f ~/etc/Makeconf $*
}

such that calling fmake instead of make gives me my private rules in
every place I need them :-)

Yes, sure, that's why I made him aware of texi2dvi: At least on Unix
systems we make sure that that is always available, while rubber might
not be. On the other hand, the R 2-liner I mentioned in an earlier
mail might be the better way to go. I always use the make rules I
described, hence had no need for either one of them -> none is in the
R sources (yet).

Best,
Fritz
