In general:
- = return subdir without delimiter (not allowed with `,' `;')
- , pathname of this subdirectory in source tree
- ; pathname of top level of source tree
+ = return subdir without delimiter (not allowed with `^' `~')
+ ^ pathname of this subdirectory in source tree
+ ~ pathname of top level of source tree
/ terminates the escape (needed if next is not lwsp or space)
lwsp starts multi-word processing (see below)
So pathname syntax is a subset of:
- '&' [ ',' | ';' ] [ lc | '/' ]
+ '&' [ '^' | '~' ] [ lc | '/' ]
&& => && for convenience in shell runes
\& => & general escaping mechanism
&# delete everything to end of line
(useful if the RHS contains unrecognised & constructions)
-&!STUFF
+&:changequote STUFF
changes the escape sequence from & to literally STUFF
STUFF may be any series of of non-whitespace characters,
- and is terminated by EOL or lwsp. &!STUFF and the lwsp
- are discarded.
+ and is terminated by EOL or lwsp. The whole line is

After this, write STUFF instead of &, everywhere.
The effect is global and lasts until the next setting.

Handled specially. If mentioned, declares that this
far enough to regenerate a working set of makefiles. If this happens
just rerun ./config.status by hand.
+If you go back and forth between different versions of your code you
+can sometimes find that `make' complains that one of your Subdir.sd.mk
+files is missing: typically, if iot was used and therefore a
+dependency in some other version of your code. If you run `make
+clean' (or `make realclean') these dependencies are suppressed, which
+will clear up the problem.
