Actually, it's more like: Now you can write a short story, if that's all the story you have to tell; or a novella, if you have a bit more; or a novel, if you've got even more; or even a "A la recherche du temps perdu", if you've got lots and lots of stories to tell :) > With targets you have a simple mechanism to define small functions in > your build, call them, depend on them.

I don't happen to see it that way. I find a sequential list of tasks to perform just as (and in some cases, more) readable. > I really don't find a target-less build file useful.
