Re^2: Parameters to make-invoked script

echo.pl $(TEXT) > $@

Note that you will have a really hard time making sure that there are no shell special characters in TEXT. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as system() with several arguments in make. I believe some make programs provide implementation-specific means for quoting strings. However, if you expect TEXT to have strange characters, you'd be better off using the environment.
