Why restrict yourself to a screwdriver when you have a nail to drive? 
Use the best to for the purpose.  I don't believe you can do iterative 
processing in a makefile without $(shell ..) construct.  Even then if 
that's still pure enough for you, you're going to end up writing a shell 
script that does the looping for you.  If it's an interative process you 
need, use the shell.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
