I tried putting that line in my makefile and it doesn't seem to create a
list that I need (probably operator error).

Here is what I am currently doing:

in my include directory I have a bunch of .h files.
>ls include/*
a.h
b.h
c.h

Then, in a makefile I typed a list of identical filenames except I changed
the extension

makefile:
###############################
HEADER = a.hh
HEADER += b.hh
HEADER += c.hh

#and there is this for loop later that uses this list:
    @for f in $(HEADER) ; do echo "HOWDY!"  ; done
##################################

I was hoping to use whatever headers are in the include directory instead of
trying to remember to modify this makefile. When I try to compile, the C
source files which include the .hh files can't find the header (.hh). Is
there a way to do this? thanks please help.
