This isn't really a gnu make question, but I would guess that for msw you're using a shell ("command prompt") that doesn't treat ';' as a command separator. If so, then you're likely to have other problems if the makefile contains nontrivial commands. Instead of rewriting such commands, you might consider using Cygwin to get a working environment similar to GNU/Linux: http://cygwin.com/ _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list Make-w32@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
