Hi rooters! Here's a question not really specific to ROOT but I hope someone has an answer: I want to have a target in my Makefile which prints the contents of some variables to the terminal. Trouble is, the output gets quite long so I want the name of the variable to be bold. Looking at the /etc/termcap I find out how to do it in the shell (linux): echo "\033[1mCSRCSUF\033[m\017 = C" gives <b>CSRCSUF</b> = C So I try the following in my Makefile: @echo "\033[1mCSRCSUF\033[m\017 = "$(CSRCSUF) gives \033[1mCSRCSUF\033[m\017 = C So is there no way to use escape sequences in a Makefile? Or does somebody know how to get the bold output?
