Hi,

I've just played with make and the .SILENT: target.
Normally this suppress echoing the command as expected.
But some special targets like .BEGIN, .END and .INTERRUPT
seams to ignore it.

Reading the code I've seen this kind of silence is set in
Job_CheckCommands(). But this routine will only be called
for normal targets.

Can someone explain me if there is a way to make even the
special targets less verbose?

Thx,
Dag
