Thanks! I don't think they're documented. The bit you're interrested in is: world: hierarchy mk $(WORLD_CLEANDIST) include-tools includes lib-tools libraries build-tools @echo "--------------------------------------------------------------" @echo " Rebuilding ${DESTDIR} The whole thing" @echo "--------------------------------------------------------------" @echo ${MAKE} depend all install cd ${.CURDIR}/share/man && ${MAKE} makedb @echo "make world completed on `date`" This means, create the obj hierarchy, clean the source (optional), put the include files in place, put the libraries in place, put the build tools in place (compiler, make etc), make & install everything using the new make tools. make install is the last bit of make world (as you can see). BTW, this is from 2.2-960323-SNAP - it may now be a bit different ! -- Brian <brian@awfulhak.demon.co.uk> Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
