The point is the cvs version before '17 Apr 2004' does perfectly work on Debian like systems, but not on systems without GNU make.

It looks like '=' and backticks will work. In the future, before we create a release, ask me and I'll try a build on Solaris with Sun's make and cc. I can do AIX and HP too, but my guess is just Solaris will handle most of these problems. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL:http://www.fvwm.org/.
