Trouble with an If test in a makefile for Mac

[Brian_Allison]

I am trying to check if a file exist and I am getting a make error: *** Seperator Missing. Stop. message

Here is the coding

if [ -f relap/adechk.ff ]; then

cpl =

else

cpl = cpl

fi

[Brian_Allison]

Here is a better description of the coding. The part in question is bolded and underlined. The error is about line 29

# To prepare a Compile Library Transmittal from an installed version:

# make -f makerlnx preparecpl

# One of the two statements below is to be commented out, the other is

# to be active,

# The following statement is to be active when the full source is

# available.

# The following statement is to be active when the Compile Library

# Transmittal is available.

Line 29: if [ -f relap/adechk.ff]; then
