Perfectly agree.
Btw, I think it is better to use set_lib_path function which vc2010 uses.
It checks whether compiler is vc2010, and assigns special path if it exist.
This can be easily extended to mingw.

Thank You! This is very helpful! (Stop doing my work when I'm busy. :-) )
Can you post the script? I want to test GLSL for ES 2.0 also, because it is

My advice is to use MSVS2008 and cmake. With VS IDE, it is much easier to
