To answer Richard's question, use ``make -v'' to get the version
information.
I am currently using GNU Make 2.9 since I could not get GNU Make 3.05
to work without generating a ``virtual memory exhausted'' error
message.
I am having trouble with GNU Make 2.9 and would like to go to a more
recent version.
Could someone arrange to put the latest-and-greatest on prep in /u/emacs ?
I am not able to directly FTP it from there, but I have a friend who
has agreed to help get it from there. (Or if someone has taken the
time to generate a make.diff-3.05-3.xx (where xx is the latest version
number).
Thanks in advance,
