As far as I can tell, I need to explicitly state dependencies between RCS/foo.c,v and foo.c for all files in my project. This works, but it has the unpleasant side effect of spewing forth warnings about infinite loops (because the dependencies go both ways -- one for checkin and one for checkout). I tried to set up default dependencies with .SUFFIXES, but that didn't seem to work out too well either. Somehow, I feel there must be an easier way. Can anyone suggest one to me? -- Mark Nagel Department of Information and Computer Science, UC Irvine nagel@ics.uci.edu (ARPA) Graduate School: It's not {sdcsvax|ucbvax}!ucivax!nagel (UUCP) just a job, it's an indenture.
