[NMLUG] Loop/wildcard-like syntax for GNU make?

[niosop at gmail.com (Matthew Bowie)]

This one anchors the the gif so gif isn't replaced inside the filename (just
the extension).  Guess could also add a . on there so it only matches things
that end in .gif instead of anything that ends in gif.

all:
        for i in *.[Gg][Ii][Ff]; do make `echo $${i} | sed
s/"[gG][iI][fF]$$"/jpg/g`; done

%.jpg: %.[gG][iI][fF]
        convert $*.[gG][iI][fF] $*.jpg
