may not be dumb so much as uncuddled...unless there's a reverse typo it looks like you'd be able to achieve it once you properly wrap the inline function:
Yes that's what I mean. Problem is I can't seem to invoke these lines in my Makefile. I think it gets confused with the $2 environment variable dereference.
did you re-check your makefile for the backticks? or try the alternate in-line formatting? back-ticks were deprecated for this very reason...although there may be others...
