If you really think that is a bug you should file that bug to the writers of the shell. Make calls commands in a shell and the result is as in the shell. Try the following at your shell prompt: true && echo everything is fine echo $? false && echo evertyhing is fine echo $? false ; echo everything is fine echo $? regards Henrik _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
