Hi, If you read the porters handbook it states that when someone types "make" into a port directory make will go in order to the following targets: fetch, extract, patch, configure, build This is refered to as make's default action. My question is how is this acheived? Does freebsd use some hached version of make? This clearly is not standard actions for the make utility. If I wanted to do a software project of my own on freebsd not related to the port collection or porting at all for that matter, and wanted to use the make utility, would the make program still go through this default action, and if so, how do I turn it off. Thanks for your help. Wayne __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
