However, things fail when gmake is started in a bash shell. The statement cd libsrc/somelib/src only goes one level deep (ie we are in the libsrc directory and not libsrc/somlib/src). Anybody have any ideas of what is going on? jsm - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
