It must. Why is it so roundabout about $(DEPS)/$(FILES)? The target *actuall* depends on different files than those declared in the sources list! What does $(DEPS) (and $(FILES)) contain? This is what your Makefile does, BTW: grep ^keywords keylist.txt ... > keylist.txt Try it with this instead (rename keylist.txt to key.list), but make sure you have at least one file ending in .txt in that directory first!): KEYLIST := key.list FILES := $(wildcard *.txt) $(KEYLIST): $(FILES) ; grep '^keywords' $^ > $@ -- How many Vietnam vets does it take to screw in a light bulb?
