Are you sure? I don't think so. Try this simple Makefile:

a:
        @echo a
b:
        @echo b

And then execute 'make a b a'. The output is, as I expected:

	ernst@heinz$ make a b a
	a
	b
	ernst@heinz$

This is default make(1) behaviour. It should not be necessary to document it.


Sincerely,


Ernst
