Hello,
It says in the manual:
$<
The name of the first prerequisite
Is it guaranteed that, if vpath is used, then the directory part of the value
of $< is in fact, one of the vpath paths?
(it could be, that the value of $< were an absolute path for example, while
vpath paths are relative - is this kind of thing guaranteed not to happen?).
What about the separator between the directory path and the file name, is it
guaranteed to always be "/", even on Windows?
Similar questions about other auto variables that depend on vpath/VPATH.
If these things are guaranteed, can they be put in the manual?
