		bxparks on Jan 11, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Why Use Make (2013) The macOS version of GNU Make is stuck at 3.81, which I discovered does not print the information needed by vim's quickfix feature when traversing subdirectories using `make -C`. Installing the latest version of GNU Make (4.4) using `brew install make` fixed that problem.
