You have to quote the argument so make treats the entire CPULIST as one argument: make OS=nto CPULIST='x86 -B install' LDFLAGS=-M This is really more of a shell syntax question than a make question: whenever you want to pass an argument to a program that contains whitespace or other characters special to the shell, you have to quote them so the shell doesn't mess with them. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
