SCons is a next-generation, -cross-platform build tool -this to fit your project. You dont need to anwser all these questions -or follow this exact format, but we do like to see this kind of -information before we approve projects for public viewing. +cross-platform build tool. +Think of SCons as an improved +substitute for the classic +Make utility +with integrated functionality +similar to autoconf/automake +and compiler caches such as ccache.

+Unlike build tools that invent their own mini-language +or wedge a scripting language onto some other +configuration file syntax, +SCons configuration files +are actually Python scripts. +This gives you a tremendous amount of flexibility +to solve complicated build problems +in surprisingly small amounts of code. +

+ +

+In short, SCons is an easier, more flexible +and more reliable way to build software. +

Until your project is approved, only you can view it and work on it.
