How to do this ? More details please ;-)

I try implement it in MSDOS port. My method is to define a special syxtax in action contents, for instance,

actions Cc { ^OptionName bah bha .... | contine bah bah ... ^SourceName a.c b.c ... $(CC) @OptionName -eExeName @SourceName $(RM) OptionName $(RM) SourceName }

The "^name ..." open a new file for writing The "| ..." append to last file

The implement is simple and just detected '^' and '|' from execcmd() before it be executed.

The original internal command "echo" does not work correctly from DJGPP's system() call. It gives some weird content when you use directory such as "\b\1"
