CONS
https://www.gnu.org/software/cons/
Replacement for GNU Make.
CONS is a replacement for GNU Make. It is not compatible with make, but it offers features not found in make or other build tools including:
- integrated dependency analysis (no more "make depend" to generate static lists of .h files)
- complete, non-recursive dependency analysis across multiple directories;
- multiple side-by-side variant builds;
- compilation from MD5 signatures instead of time stamps for determining whether a file is up-to-date
- extensibility via Perl.
CONS is implemented in Perl. You don't need to know Perl to use CONS, although you can use it more powerfully if you do.
