Hello,

SHELL=cmd.exe
foobar:
                @echo.

gives me:
C:\tmp>make foobar
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, echo., ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
make: *** [foobar] Error 2


However, I do use "echo." process all the time on Windows, just outputting to a 
file - this works perfectly fine:

SHELL=cmd.exe
foobar:
                @echo.>foo

and 
C:\tmp>make foobar
works fine, foo gets a newline (no errors either in foo or on standard out).  

Why is this so??

Mark
