Hi Greg Keraunen,

You need to look at the strip function.

I need to process a list and have the resultant strings have no white space
between them.
I have looked at all the make text functions and foreach, patsubst both
return white-space separated result lists
Is there a way to force $(subst ...) to accept a space as the first parameter?
This doesn't work because subst ignores leading white space before the
first parameter:
$(subst  ,,$(myText))
