Also mention how one can do shell HERE docs please!
I don't think it's possible to embed a here-doc directly in a Makefile. In the line passed to the shell, all the newlines except the very last will be preceded by a backslash, but the here-doc syntax requires a newline not preceeded by a backslash as the start of the here-doc contents. (Here-docs that aren't single quoted also require a bare newline before the terminator.) So the answer is: you put the command w/here-doc in a file, or use echo and a pipe, or in some other way rewrite it with Makefile-friendly syntax.
