There is no way to do that.
However you can do something probably even better, such as reset the
make SHELL variable to invoke your pretty-printer facility, which would
then invoke the shell and manage the output for pretty-printing:
SHELL := pretty-print $(SHELL)
for example.
Well, it kinda works, yeah, if you print it to stderr or stream the
caught into some gui app maybe to explore.
With a simple wrapper shell. I just tried it:
$ make libplast.so

But isn't it a little bit cumbersome when you don't want every subshell
to be spilled?
I might extend gnu make itself I guess instead, to add a hook like that
then.
So it'll be loaded as a shared library for speed an convenience.
And add such capability perhaps into existing 'load
<pretty-printer.so>(...)' extensions mechanism.
WDYT?
