I'm sure many of you have got the message from make that there is a
missing spearator. In most cases that I have seen, this means that a
statement has spaces in front of it, rather than an actual tab. In my
experience, if you change the spaces to a tab, make works fine. What I
want to know is this: is there a version of make that accepts the
spaces, and/or is there a program to automatically change spaces at the
beginning of lines to tabs?
