On (info "(make) MAKE Variable") please warn:
Remember that anything else you put *on the same line* with $(MAKE) on it will
also get executed despite -n:
w:
beep; beep; beep; $(MAKE) qq
will beep in the middle of the night, despite
$ make -n w
If you don't want
$ make x
to suddenly invoke the $BROWSER, then instead of
x:
$(MAKE) lost_groups; $$BROWSER zzz.html
please use
x:
$(MAKE) lost_groups
$$BROWSER zzz.html
Sure, it is already discussed on the page, but not resoundingly enough.
