RE: Resetting makelevel

[William . Peets]

Thank you.  That worked perfectly.  I did not think that setting that

Thanks again!

Well, recu make may well be cons harm, but what's so harmful about

         $(MAKE) MAKELEVEL=0 ...

or

         MAKELEVEL=0 $(MAKE) ...

or

         export MAKELEVEL=0

??
