Re: GNU MAKE issue

[Oliver Shariff III]

Another change Ive implementd with no success, thats my main problem;
make does not get variables as I want I think
on this line:

REL="";export REL;FOUND="0"; export FOUND;
for WORD in $(shell pwd|tr -s "/" " "); do $REL="$REL../";  echo "$
$REL/Entorno/Imakefile.rules" > dir_ada_idl/Imakefile; \                @@\

want to get somthing like that ../../../../Entorno/Imakefile.rules
depending on deep path thats why I read on pwd


any suggestion??


thank you so much
