Hi there,

Silly situation keeps me from continuing w/ my tests... I'm trying to
execute the following makefile in a Linux machine:

*********************************
all:
listen speak

listen:	listen.o
gcc -g listen.c -o listen

speak:	speak.o
gcc -g speak.c -o speak

clean:
\rm -f listen speak

squeaky:
make clean
\rm -f listen.o speak.o

#tar:
#	cd ..; tar czvf socket.tar.gz socket/Makefile socket/listen.c
socket/speak.c socket/README; cd socket; mv ../socket.tar.gz .
*********************************

But for some reason, I get this error:
***************
eos% ./Makefile
./Makefile: line 1: all:: command not found
./Makefile: line 2: listen: command not found
./Makefile: line 4: listen:: command not found
./Makefile: line 7: speak:: command not found
./Makefile: line 10: clean:: command not found
./Makefile: line 13: squeaky:: command not found
***************

any idea what is this about?

Thank you very much,

Fernando

How about running make?

Ok, i realized what my mistake was... you should call makefile with the
make command... :-(
