RE: GNU MAKE ERROR

[Parthasarthi K]

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply. We had installed MKS Toolkit and I think the make
utility in that was being invoked. But we had some application problems
after that and we switched over to solaris 8. 
Now after unzipping the make-3.79.1.tar.gz file on solaris, we are not able
to find any script file to invoke 'make' or 'gnumake'. Do you have any
instructions for using/running make ?

Any clue or help will be again much appreciated. Thanks.

Regards,
Partha

        That doesn't sound like a message GNU make will print.  Are you sure
        you're invoking the right make executable?
