WISHLIST
Here are some features which I would like to implement in the future.
- $(macro:from=to)
- replace the macro and rule Lists with binary trees for faster searches
- :: rules to supply alternate rules for targets
- + command prefix to force the execution of lines
- force the execution of lines containing $(MAKE) or ${MAKE}
- the $^ automatic variable
- .IGNORE .PRECIOUS .SILENT
- static pattern rules
- the ability to apply rules to the contents of archives
and link libraries
- vpath and VPATH search paths for dependencies
- -W command line argument to run Make with a ``what if'' scenario
- parallel remote execution of compiles
- the ability to pass variables between nested executions of Make
