Re: RE: real-time log

[Vikas Joshi]

I should have mentioned: I am dealing with windows world. In MS Windows (2000) 
it does not do that. I took your example and modified it as below:

target:
        echo one
        pause
        echo two
        pause
        echo three

When I run "make target" I don't see anything until I press two keys.

Any help on windows ?
