Having lived with
make for over 20 years; I’ve decided that something has to be better. Turns out, there is something better.I’ve been enjoying getting to know both Python and
scons together for the last few months.
What a wonderful tool for building. There is a ton of information online, so I won’t add to the mélé with my opinions.
Check it out : scons.org.

Yeah, it’s great that we’re settling on a single standard of {jam,bjam,ant,scons,cook,gbs} to solve this problem. It sure makes it easy to work with new opensource projects, having the learning opportunity of spending hours or days figuring out a new and alien suite of build tools before you can do a damn thing to the code.
