I'm pretty sure that the alias won't work, since system() doesn't go through the shell. However, a simple script should be a good enough workaround for me, so I'll use that for now. But, we should keep a mental note to revisit this. Others like me coming from the Makefile world will expect this to work. Chris On Thursday, October 16, 2003, at 09:04 PM, Stephen J.
