In the GNU Make book, pg. 29, section 4.7, under the heading of .SILENT, there is an extraneous "the": .SILENT If you specify dependencies for .SILENT, then make will not !!the!! print commands to remake those particular files before executing thmem. The commands for .SILENT are not meaningful. Happy coding!
