I doubt it. I would bet you're either seeing this:
echo #include
or maybe this:
make: 'f' is up to date.
...or you didn't quote your Makefile accurately. If your makefile actually
had this rule:
f:
@echo $(rez)
*then* you would see nothing...and removing the '@' makes the problem more
clear: the $(rez) is expanded before the command is passed to the shell, so
any shell meta-characters in it will still be magic to the shell. The
shell treats words starting with a '#' as the start of a comment, so from
there to the end of the line will be ignored. To pass it through you'll
need to quote it either with single or double-quotes, ala:
f:
@echo '$(rez)'
