Iyer) Distribution: usa Organization: University of Minnesota, Minneapolis - CSCI Dept. Lines: 15 I am having a few problems with Ultrix 3.2 Make Facility. Specifically, I have a Makefile that runs properly on a Sun and an Apollo but dies on a DEC 3100 RISC. The problem centers around the use of `pwd`: BINDIR=`pwd`/bin $(MAKE) INSTALL "BINDIR=$(BINDIR)" The above lines included in the Makefile. Apparently, `pwd` is not being expanded to represent the present-working-directory. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance. Ryan
