Make/Bash Problem with B20

Tue Nov 17 05:30:00 GMT 1998

Hey,
I have the following problem using the Cygwin B20 under NT:
When using very long "inline-shell-scripts" (i.e. shell commands within a Makefile with "\" spanning over several lines) the sub-shell sometimes gets only part of the line, so there is a limit of how many chars can be passed to a child-process.
My question: *Where* is this limit ?? Make, bash, NT ??
If not NT, can the limit be risen to a higher value ??
Bye,
Holger Szillat
