Edit Question
Title
Body
I have this in my Makefile: run: for x in *.bin ; do ./$$x ; done such that it launches all executables one by one. I want to do this: run: for x in *.bin ; do ./$$x &; done so that it starts each executable and puts it in the background. I get a syntax error for the above statement when I put the ampersand. I dont want to invoke the make as make & since this will run processes in the background but still one by one, whereas I want individual executables to run in the background, so that at any instant I have more than one executable running. Thank you in advance.
