have you looked at my Makefiles?

liberty: $(EXEC) $(EXEC).def bin.stamp
$(BUILDPRC) $(EXEC).def liberty *.bin
...
bin.stamp: $(EXEC).rcp
$(PILRC) -q $(EXEC).rcp

look at cube3D/burning samples on my website.. www.ardiri.com

you haven't been watching the pilrc website much have you?

pilrc is now at 2.8p5 - i got a few bugs/patches to integrate, i'll
release 2.8p6 soon, but, once its tested and stable, i hope to release
a more public version (3.0!)
the fix "todo" list is here:

:) the header file problem is fixed, not integrated yet tho.

see above.. the hope is to not have people maintaining their own
versions, but sending in patches so we can keep one single version
up-to-date :)

hey, code is available.. send me a patch - or, use another util :)
probably just need to return an error code.. easy fix. :P
