- DESCRIPTION
- This version of make now allows limited definition of macros on
- the command line when invoking the utility. The syntax of a
- command line macro definition is:
-
- -m <name>:<body>
-
- where <name> is the macro name and <body> is the macro text. The
- macro name, seperator, and body may not contain whitespace.
-
- You may define more than one macro this way, the only limitation
- being the maximum size of the comand line. However, unlike
- macros defined in the makefile, macros cannot be "undefined"
- from the command line; you must specify definition text to
- associate with the name.
-
- Make performs macro substitution and escape character processing
- on the command line definitions.
-
- Because the Lattice C start-up routine consumes any equal-sign
- characters and immediately following text that appear on the
- command line, the syntax of a command line macro definition must
- be different from the syntax used in the makefile. Sorry about
- that. Complaints should be directed to Lattice.
