The = > longer name is more truthful and less convenient on purpose. = = = How about "make lifimage"? = That's the only reason I run "make palo" in the XC environment. = Having a XC-palo in the environment is no problem. = In the XC env, I don't expect "make install" to do the right thing (tm). ok, I ammend my proposal so that what I just described as 'make palo' be changed to 'make lifimage', and that what I just called 'make buildrunpalo', which jumps into the source tree and builds palo among other things, retain the name buildrunpalo.
