I'm not sure what you mean. If you look up "define" in the GNU make manual index: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Name-Index_fn_letter-D it will send you here: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Multi_002dLine which is an entire section describing this feature with examples, and titled "Defining Multi-Line Variables". _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
