It's basically a way to perform operations within make itself that would otherwise require recursion, either explicit or implicit (via the auto-re-exec feature). It's also a prerequisite (perhaps...) to integrating Guile as an extension language for make; one potential way for this to work is to create a $(guile ...) function; then you might do something like: $(eval $(guile (some guile code here...))) where the Guile code returned some makefile content. Or something. How this might work in real life needs more thought :). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
