Hi,
   I have tried to use make on an SGI machine.
But the syntax seems like is totally different from
other machines.  The normal dependency "making"
mechanism works fine.  But I can't do any
looping with the make.  For examples,

for i in $(SUBDIR)"";
do
echo "$$i";
make
done

The make always coomplains
for: command not found

Can anyone give a hand on this?  Please.

Ivan
