That's right. That is exactly the problem. Use u2d to fix it. This is not a GNU make problem. ___ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make

If you did, don't, they often 'helpfully' convert lineendings; use the cygwin command-line "tar". The other possibility is that you've installed cygwin with dos-mode line endings when you used setup.exe. That can be switched back by rerunning setup.exe. If you need more help, come and post over on the cygwin mailing list and we'll sort it out there. See the list page for archive, (un)subscribe and posting details. http://cygwin.com/cygwin/lists.html#cygwin cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today ___ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
