Just a bug corrected (missing bin/variables) in make clone. So added a real make test now (XP philosophy is there). release 0.08

Now, directories are created when needed. Their names are defined in the file bin/variables. You can change their names, just edit the bin/variables file. m4 command must be prefixed with "m4_" now. Added safe myname.sh calls for navsquare *_DIR variables are included from bin/variables Added htm_dir txt_dir dvi_dir rtf_dir ps_dir tex_dir info_dir lyx_dir man_dir pdf_dir recipes in Makefile Added HTM_DIR TXT_DIR DVI_DIR RTF_DIR PS_DIR TEX_DIR INFO_DIR LYX_DIR MAN_DIR PDF_DIR variables in bin/makerules.pl Added HTM_DIR TXT_DIR DVI_DIR RTF_DIR PS_DIR TEX_DIR INFO_DIR LYX_DIR MAN_DIR PDF_DIR variables in Makefile Added html_dir recipe in Makefile Replace some ";" by "&&" in bin/makerules.pl commands Added HTML_DIR variable in bin/makerules.pl Added HTML_DIR variable in Makefile Added dist-dir-test recipe release 0.07

I've read again , written by . He is right. I've experienced many caveats he descibes so I decided to remove the recursive makefile building. The processor m4 is powerful. Now you can write SGML documents that will be processed by m4 if they end with the suffix .m4 instead of .sgml. Be careful, toto.sgml file will be overwritten if but only if toto.m4 exists. To avoid any hidden caveats I put them in the same directory (./sgml). - make pdf is no longer recursive - make man is no longer recursive - make lyx is no longer recursive - make info is no longer recursive - make tex is no longer recursive - make ps is no longer recursive - make rtf is no longer recursive - make dvi is no longer recursive - make txt is no longer recursive - make html is no longer recursive - HTML_FROM_SGML is HTM_FROM_SGML now in Makefile. - Removed copy of sgml/*.sgml and sgml/*.m4 in make clone - [2001 03 12 04:24:53] 2001 March 12 Monday MET - Adapted make dist - Adapted make clone - change some "M4_" definitions in m4/definitions.m4 - [2001 03 07 22:47:02] 2001 March 07 Wednesday MET - make clean-headers in top Makefile - def from m4 in top Makefile - adapted make dist in top Makefile - added md5sum to make dist in top Makefile - adapted make clone in top Makefile - adapted make lfo in top Makefile - Added $(DIST_DIR) in top Makefile - Added m4/definitions.m4 dependency in bin/makerules.pl - Added some M4_ def use in sgml/lidoma-guide.fr.m4 - Added some M4_ def def in m4/definitions.m4 - Changed makeheader.pl to work with m4/definitions.m4 - Added "make date" in top Makefile - [2001 03 06 21:23:50] 2001 March 06 Tuesday MET - Changed define VERSION and DIST_NAME in top Makefile - Applied definitions to sgml/lidoma-test.fr.m4 - Wrote ./m4/definitions.m4 - Defined $(SGML_FROM_M4) $(SGML_LIST) $(HTML_FROM_SGML) - removed old htm rules in bin/makerules.pl - rm htm/Makefile - htm2: rule is replaced by htm: (old htm: removed) - Wrote ./htm/*.htm in makerules.pl - Wrote htm2: rule - Tried ./htm/%.htm in rules/rules.m4 - removed rules/rules.m4 and moved its rules in bin/makerules.pl - Added conditional test to "rules:" in the top Makefile. - removed bin/Makefile and moved the rules to the top Makefile. - Added dependency to "sgml:" for all "real" targets (html, htm, etc.) - Wrote the "sgml:" goal. - Wrote the "sgml::" rule in bin/rules.m4 - [2001 03 05 23:25:55] 2001 March 05 Monday MET release 0.06
