Linux is an operating system, and dosen't come with _any_ programs as such. The programs that linux is distributed with mostly are the GNU tools from the Free Software Foundation. GNU definately do make a make (sorry). Your system most likely has one. Chances are, your path's not set up to find it. (make usually resides at /usr/bin/make) Check your path. echo $PATH if /usr/bin/make isn't included, in bash do PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/make in csh setenv PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/make now which make should find make for you. Failing this, try locate make (assuming you've run updatedb lately) or (failsafe) find / -name make -print if the last comes up blank, you'll need to install it. You should find it on a sunsite, eg sunsite.unc.edu or sunsite.anu.edu.au Paul
