%% Regarding Cannot get any cool make functions to work; you wrote:

  rr>         echo $( subst ee, EE, feed the need)

Whitespace is important.  Use $(subst ee,EE,feed the need).

No space between the "(" and function name, and if you put a space
before the "EE" then it will substitute "ee" with " EE" (space EE).
