UsageEnvironment.mak:17: *** missing separator. Stop.

[Ross MacGillivray]

I am compiling one of the livemedia libraries (live.com), and I am getting the
following error:

E:\livemedia\live\UsageEnvironment>make --makefile=UsageEnvironment.mak
UsageEnvironment.mak:17: *** missing separator.  Stop.

I have seen two explanations for this error
  i.  the line delimitor/paragraph limiter is invalid, e.g. lf instead of crlf
 ii.  there is a tab missing at line 17 

Can some clarify the exact meaning of the error?

Also what is the equivalent in cygwin of the 'rc' resource compiler?

/Ross
