Re: missing separator stop <- looking to quickly solve that

[Patrick Horgan]

In the original K & R C book there was an exercise to build entab and detab programs--easy to do with FSM.  I bet if you search with google you can find a million of them. (Perhaps a million and seventeen).

In most windows editors you can save file with TABS, but some other convert TAB into SPACE.
If you are using Windows download PSPad. As for as I know there is no programs that
change needed spaces into tabs.

I'm looking forward to deactivate the TAB-SPACE "feature" of make that
is not letting me advance. Is there a switch, env variable, patch to
makefile or whatever that can remove that. I mean I can't be changing
a zillion makefiles since that is not productive at all therefore I
won't. At least not now. Maybe in the future I could build sort of
"upgrade" script that pases makefiles and rewrites them in compliant
form but time matters therefore I won't be doing that now. If later is
not available wich was the latest version that doesn't have the POSIX
enforcement? I could try a downgrade, even with bugs. I don't care.
    

I don't know what "TAB-SPACE "feature"" of make you're talking about.

If you provide some useful detail you might get an answer.
