Tom,

Everything which isn't wrapped in $( $)... from manpage:
The special pseudo-variables*$(*and*$)*may be used to surround parts of a command line that may change/without/causing a rebuild--that is, which are not included in the signature of target files built with this command. All text between*$(*and*$)*will be removed from the command line before it is added to file signatures, and the*$(*and*$)*will be removed before the command is executed. For example, the command line:

The other thing I'm not sure about is if I have a build script that says
    '$PERL -w ${SOURCES[1]} blah blah blah ${SOURCE.base}'

how much of that gets put into the the signature when it's being calculated.

Tom,

Wouldn't grep'ing your SConstruct/SConscripts find this for you?

Due to not really paying attention when I was developing some of my scripts, I have some 
command lines that contain names with sort-of-absolute paths. That is to say its 
/dev/git/<username>/<projectname>/scripts/somescript

Unsurprisiingly, this causes the build not to use the cached version from 
/dev/git/<someelses>/<project>/scripts/somescript

So I can see how I can fix this by using ${ scriptname $} and making sure 
scriptname is referenced as a dependency.

However, how can I find out how many places I've done this in? In particular, 
is there some why of printing the contents of an action when you're calculating 
the signature, so I can scan for ones that have /dev/git in them?

Thanks
