Makefile command interpreter

2008-05-14 Thread Volker Kuhlmann
I have a few makefiles which are written to run with the cmd.exe command interpreter, which won't work with cygwin's make (which uses /bin/sh). Setting export SHELL=cmd.exe calls cmd.exe alright, but then sits there forever waiting for input. Is it at all possible to use cmd.exe with a make whi
