Re: duplicated targets

[Maciej Walezak]

Hi,

I did as you advised and it works fine.
But what if I want more complicated command e.g. like this:

remove:
        @echo
        @echo removing ...
        ar -d $(LIB) $(MEM)

If I write it in one line separating by semicolons and use '@' at the beginning 
then no command will be echoed and if I omit '@' then all commands will be 
echoed. And neither case is what I want.
