Follow-up Comment #4, bug #31326 (project make):
``or something like that''
Yeah, you wouldn't always do it and you'd have to decide on a
case-by-case basis when it might be appropriate.
So, several options for this:
* wont-fix because the trouble/benefit ratio isn't good enough
* consider an error-message-to-what-it-means doc, though
today's Googling gave a better answer than last fall.
But since Google results vary and can degrade and not everyone
can phrase queries in a way to get top results for best
answers, a "we may do that some day when we find spare time"
response sounds reasonable to me.....
* identify messages that may need explanation and implement:
make --explain="multiple target patterns"
instead of a separate doc. That would be a Cool Thing.
* a cheapie implementation:
errno=0;
if (fork() == 0)
system("$BROWSER
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=gnu+make+%22multiple+target+patterns%22 ");
exit(errno);
