Are you from selection.co.uk?


Certainly am, however I wouldn't have thought you'd need to ask... I have both the benefit and burden of having a name that no one else in the world has... :-)

If it's to have any success it'll have to support the other build systems. However my hope is that I can make this thing so simple and intuitive that new projects would prefer it.
I haven't spent much time on it yet so there is a way to go still.


Other D build systems have started out with the same premise, however inertia is always in the way of that ever happening unfortunately...
