I Have the following question!
I am using "make" to compile and link my program consisting out of 3 files.
If I use an unix-editor the make works fine. But if I use a DOS-Editor
(Q-Edit) there is a Problem.
Error-message: missing separator
I use the TAB before the commands but I think something with the TAB
goes wrong. Can someone give help?
Your editor is translating tabs to a string of spaces. Command lines in
makefiles MUST begin with a <TAB> not spaces! See if Q-Edit allows you to
enter a CTRL-I ( (char)9 ) as a quoted character.
