I'm wondering if anybody has experience with mk, cmake, makemake, pmake, cons, scons, waf, etc. Feedback welcome. In particular, I stumbled across Cbuild recently, and although imperfect (what isn't?), it's extremely easy to build (only one .C file!), very portable, and pretty easy to use. Looks like a good candidate for people who hate typical makefiles. http://kcat.strangesoft.net/cbuild.html
