We've already discussed about hb*, but at the moment I don't see the reason to swap worldwide well known standards like shell scripting and gnu makefiles with a tool that only ONE developer knows and maintain. I use many tools from google and yahoo in my makefiles and I don't see how could I fit them in hbmk2 and surely you'll be not interested to support them. best regards, Lorenzo _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list (attachment size limit: 40KB) Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
