I do understand the complexities of the make system doing recursive work (poor Steve Black..), but can Jam call a make file? I know nothing of jam, at all. Unless there is a basic Jam file someone can download and fille in two fields, I'm real hesitant at having to waste time learning Jam. I hope jam can call makefiles. -jtarbox ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ithamar R.
