why not

link.cmd:
        echo >$@
        for xx in $(OBJ) do; echo $$xx >>$@ ; done

sorry if my make/sh is a little rusty (not sure you need $$xx, $xx may
work) - i've stopped using make and switched to ant.

Hello,

I like to have make to insert line breaks between the file names written to
a linker response file

What I have currently is:


OBJ = file1.obj \
  file2.obj \
  file3.obj


link.cmd:
  echo $(OBJ) > $@

That will create one line in the link.cmd file with:

file1.obj file2.obj file3.obj

What I need is having a one line for each file.

file1.obj
file2.obj
file3.obj


I tried the foreach function but that allows me to insert text between the
file names but not a new line.

Have you got an idea how to solve this within make (I can't run a shell
script)
