I have a target in a makefile like this:

clean:
	delete #?.o tecoc

How do I escape the '#' character, so lmk does not eat the rest of the
line as a comment? The manual says that the ~ character is the escape
character, but

clean:
	delete ~#?.o tecoc

does not work either. I hate to have to put a dependency on ARP delete,
i.e.,

clean:
	delete *.o tecoc

in my makefile, since it is for public consumption. No, I can't do a
delete $(OFILES) or anything like that; there are 123 object modules;
they overflow an Amiga command line. Any ideas?
