PWD is not a variable that make manages. If you see it in your makefile, it's because your shell had it set in its environment and exported it before make was invoked. Make will simply use/pass down the value it had when make was invoked, or any overriding value it was given in your makefile. But, it won't manage that value itself. You can check the CURDIR variable if you like. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
