- Hi,
- suppose 'make' executes a bunch of programs. Suppose some of them are junk
- and get hung. How can make recover ? I'd like to use something like the
- csh 'limit' command, so that each executable has e.g. a max of 3 cpu mins
- before it gets terminated.
-
- Thanks for your help.

- Cheers, Henrik
