Corrupt makefile

    I tried to set up my first small project using Dev-C++ 4.9.7.0 on Win2K. The makefile that is generated (Makefile.win) contains apparently spurious text on some of the target lines. For example,

    ../fet/olimex449/lcd.o: ../fet/olimex449/lcd.c ile.
    $(CC) -c ../fet/olimex449/lcd.c -o ../fet/olimex449/lcd.o $(CFLAGS)

    Of course, the compilation fails because "ile." doesn't exist. The spurious text so far is either "ile." or just "."
    As a brand new (and enthusiastic) user of Dev-C++ I ask:
    - Is this the right place to ask this question?  The same post in the Users forum received no response.
    - What additional information would help someone help me?
    - Can I edit the makefile manually, then force Dev-C++ to use my makefile instead of creating its own?

    Thanks much for any pointers.

      Hello,

      Please try updating to latest version (Tools menu, Check for Update). This bug should have been corrected

      devcpp.exe version 4.9.7.5 works correctly.  Thank you.
