Hi ! Thanks for the answers ... I've already tried the backslash but it does not work. But I've done some new investigation. The problem is solved by : - using backslash (foo\:\:bar.ext) : but doing only this it causes new problem executing "make dist" because it seems to expand this name as foo\\:\\:bar.ext during the copy and cp does not find the file .... - patching the "distdir' target from autoconf replacing the "cp -p ...." by sh -c "cp -p ...." ... Unfortunately, I can't do this considering that the files won't be used on machines with my patched version of autotools ... If no other idea, I think that I'm going to simply write a non-generatted Makefile for the directory where are those files (only one directory in the project). -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-consider-filenames-containing-%22%3A%3A%22-character-sequence---tp23212388p23218076.html Sent from the Gnu - Make - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
