title: using setenv in makefile
body: <p>I am trying to use setenv variable in my makefile but when I execute my make file it gives setenv: command not found.</p>
  
  <p>How can I use it?</p>
  
  <p>Actually I wanted to run a shell script which sets multiple environment variables.</p>
  
  <p>Since the list is very huge I dont have an option except to use the scripts. I cant set them manually like 
  abcd:= /xx/yy/zz</p>
  
  <p>Please suggest. </p>
  
  <p>P.S. the same command 
  setenv xxx yyy works very well in shell
  it just fails when I use in makefile directly or makefile with a script having this command.
