Thank you for your help and your batch file. I have changed the directory
names in the batch file, changed the path as you suggested and tried again
but with the same result. After trying some more minutes i went in one of
the subdirectories (nsprpub) and just entered 'gmake' at the prompt - and
everything got compiled! Only when i use nmake i get the problems...
Any more ideas? I don't want to run gmake manually in every subdirectory, i
don't think i would get very far with that (obviously i am not so
experienced in reading makefiles).
