What's this "when"? make.pl v. ~0.6 committed. It uses a fairly simple line-based parser, not P::RD. I didn't want to require non-core modules, but we can certainly take this and morph it into something more perl-like. As a matter of fact, I would prefer to do this, but doing that would break GNU make compatibility. Given the HoHoHoHo... data structure I use to hold dependencies it would be fairly straightforward to map onto something using P::RD. -- Jeff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
