Jay obvious figured it out, but for the archives: The GNU Make is often called `gmake`, even though the binary is called `make`. I sometimes symlink `make` to `gmake` if I have multiple versions of make installed.
I think Debian doesn't symlink `make` to `gmake`, but as I recall I think Redhat and Mandrake have the symlink by default. nmake is a version of make made by Microsoft. I think it comes with Visual C++. -Mark On Sun, 15 Jun 2003, Jay Strauss wrote: > Please ignore this tread > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jay Strauss" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "vox-tech" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 1:52 PM > Subject: [vox-tech] gmake and nmake > > > > Hi, > > > > I'm trying to compile this thing called HTML Tidy, but the doc says it > > compiles with "gmake".
