RE: variable with newlines

[Venkatraman Krishnan]

Thanks for your reply. I guess, I asked the wrong question. Here's the content of my Makefile.

override define EXCLUDE_DIRS
dir_a
dir_b
endef

all:
    @/bin/echo $(EXCLUDE_DIRS)

When I try to make, I am guessing, the echo fails because of the multiline variable. How do I fix this?

thanks again.
