3. Coadjute keeps track of command line arguments (see docs for details): for me this is really a killer feature, I don't know of anything else which does this.
It's been done many times before; it never seems to catch on. My personal favorite was Shape (http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~shape/) which I used for a few local projects in the late 80s. SCons is perhaps the most popular tool in this class (and itself a Pythonization of the original Perl Cons; maybe it's time for HCons?), followed by Apache's Ant (I don't think that actually caches command lines or binaries though), then Jam and successors. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
