Thanks John, your book is the most-referred to on my office shelf ;)

+1 for a great book, I bought that book too!

I use the patterns in @jgrahamc's article "Escaping: A Walk on the Wild Side" pretty often. Especially the \n definition, which works great to put on the end of a $(foreach) loop inside of a recipe.

@jgrahamc: Thanks for all you've written on Make over the years.

I also recommend this book. The series on “meta programming make” is also quite good: http://make.mad-scientist.net/category/metaprogramming/

Ooh. That's great. I had not seen that!

That'a great. Glad it was helpful. If you have any of your own GNU Make tips and tricks please do blog about them!
