-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greets, I was told by a friend of mine that he had a way of "make"ing and having some sort of option to fork the resultant processes so that instead of 1 make process running, one could split it into 4 separate processes that would accomplish the "make" faster. I read the man page for make, but did not find anything really related to it, although it is entirely possible that I could have missed it. If someone could kindly point me to a URL or let me know if it was even possible, I would appreciate it. I would ask the friend, but I have since lost touch with him. Thanks!

Ergo, we are all corn. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com>; iQA/AwUBOrgiTikK9qTvGvteEQIO1gCeLV9Fts96IMfhLUNheOp6jwow+vIAoLVJ 4OKxfZC3XsJTnaVsNfAWWmc4 =jzRH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
