What does something like this mean? target1 + target2 target3: prerequisites command ?? There are two obvious things it might mean, and I don't like either of them :). When GNU make gets this feature, I don't think it will use this syntax. I was thinking something like adding a special delimiter: target1 target2 +: prerequisites command or "|:" or something like that. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
