From 71d0cddeacc1c626780c9e47345a322b39eaf0c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind)" Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2019 18:55:35 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs/manual: document new behaviour of 'make printvars' Add a 'VARS=...' setting to the example. To make it clear that several variables can be specified, use two variables in the first example. Only 2 variables are printed, so the ... is removed.
