Just letting any interested people know that the Build utility is approaching a decent level of stability now.

I'd still like a bit more feedback on it being used on real projects before I can call it "in production".

Damn! I have really got to get a linux box running here! The code works fine for us simpletons (a.k.a. Windows Users).

Okay, I've uploaded the fix for that mistake of mine. Sorry for the inconvenience.

No problem, thanks for the sweet little app. If you are interested in getting a linux box I would suggest  MEPIS (www.mepis.org), for its slick install and ease of use :)

Also, If you only use Linux rarely, Mepis can be run directly from the CD.  (Naturally, in this mode it's a bit like molasses, but it *does* work.)  You might, however, need to do a bit of jiggery with the paths if you run directly from the CD, as of course nothing could be installed in /usr/local.  It's been awhile since the last time I needed to use it (to recover from somthing stupid that I'd done to grub), but it worked perfectly.  I even tried installing it as if it would be my main system for awhile, but there still seem to be some issues between 2.6 and SDL (or there still were at the time) so I went back to Libranet.

Might wanna try Cygwin too. It just runs on top of windows.

A future feature request: an option to run the future lint-like program before calling the compiler - or an option to just lint without compiling.

Or Co-Linux, which actually runs Linux as a Windows service.
