Hello Paul,
thanks for a quick reply. Makefile is from the example in the manual::
all:
@echo Temporary file: $(mk-temp tmpfile.)
load mk_temp.so
mk_temp.so: mk_temp.c
$(CC) -shared -fPIC -o $@ $< -Imake-4.0
After some digging I realized It works as expected if I prefix "load"
with a minus sign. So we just need two minor manual updates.
Thanks!
