Thanks, but that doesn't help me help you in any way, as I cannot try this myself, and don't even know what all these parameters mean or why they have this peculiar form. I don't even know if lint-nt is a program or a batch file. Once again, as long as a Unixy shell is running the commands, you _must_ use the quoting style of that shell, and you must protect characters special for the shell by quoting them. > BTW, the sh.exe that make is picking up, is in \git\bin; I cannot really > delete that, since git uses it for other purposes. Then say SHELL=cmd.exe at the beginning of the Makefile, and Make will use cmd.exe instead of sh.exe. > What would be desirable would be if make would spawn processes using > OS methods such as exec(), rather than trying to spawn sub-shells in > the Unix style... Make already does that. But if your command includes characters special for the shell, it always invokes a sub-shell, because it doesn't want to implement all the convoluted logic of the shell with handling those special characters. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list Help-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
