[9fans] make out?
make nmake pmake bmake mk gmake i guess ant is the solution. lord knows posix could not decide on a single syntax. because it would mean picking one syntax. which was against the rules. unlike all the places where they did that in the C library. fecking eeegits.

Having had to (grudgingly) deal with ant, I would say that it is definitely not the solution. Ant uses XML for its syntax.

Having had to (grudgingly) deal with ant, I would say that it is definitely not the solution. Ant uses XML for its syntax. I think that says it all. And seeing the mess, wanting to be able to compile and cross-compile on whatever; or wanting to not need tens of gigabytes of free space to compile a thing to finally obtain tens of megabytes of programs (solution: program the framework so that intermediary objects are removed once the target is obtained); and definitively _not_ wanting autoconf and automake, I have designed R.I.S.K. for KerGIS, used now for kerTeX too (and others not published): it has taken me even not one day of work (it for sure shows). Not to say that R.I.S.K. is the solution. But there are a lot of threads that take an amount of time reading sufficient to have the job done... -- Thierry Laronde tlaronde +AT+ polynum +dot+ com http://www.kergis.com/ Key fingerprint = 0FF7 E906 FBAF FE95 FD89 250D 52B1 AE95 6006 F40C
