In fact, you could have a msg like this: GNUstep make (version x.xx); please type "make help=yes" for help.That would serve 3 purposes -- tell invoker that GNUstep make is being used (in case they care), the version, and how to get help.
Reading the make manual, it specifies for installed stripped versions: make install-strip, from this I find it more logical to use: install-strip install-nodebug and going on in the same logic: print-help # prints complete help print-targets # prints only the available targets print-options # prints the available options print-version # Source version print-gnustep-make-version # GNUstep-make version print-gnustep-base-version etc... Just my 2 cents. Dennis
