Dear all,
is anybody able to tell me how to increase the length of the list of   
possible arguments for a
DOS command line?

I'm using the MAKEGNU on DOS for porting my application from UNIX to DOS   
with the same makefile
but of course as I have a lot of "-I, -D, -U" and other exotic compiler   
options, the error I get on DOS is always
"Argument list too big".
I know that this is a limitation of DOS, but as I
will have in future to support multiple compilers both on Unix and PC, I   
would like to be able
to have always the same makefile.

Thank you very much
