Re: Problem with backtick?

I think ikegami points you correctly to your make program. If I run your example, it works just fine using GNU make on my OS X:

$ make
perl try.pl
Hello, world!

You might want to check that you have literal 'tabs' in your Makefile on the line after your 'all:' target (spaces won't do). And, did you try to run perl try.pl without the Makefile? What did it do for you?

echo S 1 [ Y V U | perl -ane 'print reverse map { $_ = chr(ord($_)-1) } @F;'

What did it do for you? It is indeed tab in the makefile. I ran perl try.pl without Makefile and it worked fine. It doesn't work only with cygwin make.	[reply]
