I don't think there is a way to "do it by the books" in this case. The closest way I can think of is to use autoconf/automake. Another way would be to create one Makefile per target platform. Once you get into the C-layer, you can use the defined variables predefined by the compiler (#ifdef(linux), #ifdef(_WIN32), etc.) But I don't think those exist at Makefile level. -Mark _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
