2007-11-04New special variable: .RECIPEPREFIXPaul Smith1-4/+12
Allows the user to reset the prefix character for introducing recipe lines from the default (tab) to any other single character, and back again. Also, reworked the manual to consistently use the word "recipe" to describe the set of commands we use to update a target, instead of the various phrases used in the past: "commands", "command lines", "command scripts", etc.
2007-07-14Fix Savannah bug #20452.Paul Smith1-17/+37
Add a new feature to the test suite suggested by Icarus Sparry: set a timer before invoking a test, so that if it loops infinitely we will wake up and have a chance to kill the process and continue.
2007-07-04* Update to GPLv3Paul Smith1-8/+9
* Update copyright to 2007 * Fix download URL for translation files (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
2007-03-20This is a major update, which switches virtually every allocated-but-not-freedPaul Smith1-6/+4
string into the strcache. As a side-effect, many more structure members and function arguments can/should be declared const. As mentioned in the changelog, unfortunately measurement shows that this change does not yet reduce memory. The problem is with secondary expansion: because of this we store all the prerequisites in the string cache twice. First we store the prerequisite string after initial expansion but before secondary expansion, then we store each individual file after secondary expansion and expand_deps(). I plan to change expand_deps() to be callable in either context (eval or snap_deps) then have non-second-expansion targets call expand_deps() during eval, so that we only need to store that dependency list once.
