Hi.

I'm finding trouble running dmd inside a Makefile. For some reason the dmd binary is never found, even though it is in my PATH and can be run from the commandline.

I've read the Makefile documentation but I haven't found anything about commands using the shell/environment. Maybe it's a bash problem? I'm adding the path to the dmd binary in an export command inside my .bash_profile.

For now I'm just modifying the makefiles to have a full path to dmd, but that's getting tiresome.

Looks like the problem was using ~. Manually expanding that to the full path makes it work inside Makefiles too.
