(I always hated make - > those of you who know ant, be glad !) Yep, make is still "in". Last I used ant it didn't support incremental builds, so compile times were much longer if you only changed one file in a project with multiple source files. This may have changed since I last used it long ago. Makefiles aren't all that bad. If they're really troubling you, check out the info pages or the O'Reilly book. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice.
