It works exactly as it did with the GNU wildcard, except that multiple files
can't be compiled at once with separate processors. I'll probably stick
with the GNU wildcard approach in my personal makefiles, or else have
both lines in there with one commented out.
My bash-fu is minimal to non-existent, but couldn't you do something
like
for LILYFILE in Parts/*.ly ; do $(LILY_CMD) "$$LILYFILE" & ;
done
wait
mv *.pdf $(OUTDIR)/
?
I'm sure there's a command, and I think it is "wait", that says to wait
and collect status from all the jobs you've just spawned, so the mv
wouldn't run until all the LILY_CMD commands had completed.

It already waits until all of the files have been run before moving
them. It just loops until it has done all of the files, then proceeds
to the next line and does the "mv" command.
This is irrelevant after Werner's last email using the ls command to
gather the filenames, though. I like that better than the looping
command, as it's easier for noobs to understand--hardly anybody, no
matter how limited their command-line experience, has failed to run a
"ls" command at some point, but one has to go a bit deeper to get into
looping scripts. I've tried Werner's suggestion and it works beautifully:
LILY_PARTS=$$(ls Parts/*.ly)
parts:
$(LILY_CMD) $(LILY_PARTS)
mv *.pdf $(OUTDIR)/
I changed the ` backticks to the $() construct on recommendations from
one of my scripting books, which alleges that backticks are
old-fashioned. I really have no idea, but all of my scripts are done
with the $() construct. Of course in the makefile it has to become $$(foo).
re: this thread--never has there been better proof that there's more
than one way to skin a cat. I doubt we'll ever come up with something
everyone likes. I'm learning a lot, though, so I don't mind all the
conflicting suggestions. :)
