-v is already in use, as a shorthand for --version. I added a new "--no-silent" option to disable "-s". As an aside I removed all the wording in the manual and man page suggesting that .SILENT was deprecated or shouldn't be used. In fact, .SILENT is extremely useful and I have absolutely no plans to remove it as a feature... and not just because it's required by POSIX. I also added (I think David B. was hoping for this?) -E as a short alias for the --eval option. All of this will be available in the next release of GNU make. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list Help-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
