Hi,

I have the following files

foo-1.pdf foo-2.pdf whose prerequisite is foo.mp  and
baz-1.pdf whose prerequisite is baz.mp


They are generated with the command

mptopdf foo.mp


I what to wirte a pattern rule similar to

%.pdf : something
   mptopdf $<

where someting tramsform names like foo-[0-9]*.pdf to foo.mp

How can i do this?

Thanks in advance
