At the risk of becoming repetitive: it is quite possible for make to take an O=elsewhere/ parameter to support both types. I am also in the camp of preferring to see frotz.o next to frotz.c. After editing frotz.c, I can do "make frotz.o" to make sure it still compiles. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
