So redirection is working differently when the command executed in each "for" iteration is an "if" and when it isn't (unless I'm understanding erroneously what "for" and "if" should do...). > how does this > explain the problem with the build which I thought was caused by the list > of files beaing shorter than it should have been? In the makefile the command is almost exactly like the one in this example, with the same effect: only the first directory goes to subdirs.el, the others are just output to the screen. -- Juanma Barranquero
