There is a dmake-4.12 distribution in CPAN. Could it also be a GNU Make distribution? No - dmake and GNU Make each have slightly different syntax requirements, and can therefore not be interchanged. Is it feasible to use GNU Make in Windows? Possibly, but first ExtUtils::MakeMaker would need to be patched so that it can create a Makefile that the Windows version of GNU Make could understand. Afaik, for Windows systems, ExtUtils::MakeMaker can currently write only nmake-compliant or dmake-compliant Makefiles. Cheers, Rob
