Sure, I understand. As I said, I looked at gpr, and it
seem like a nice build system for Ada. May be if I use
Ada as much as you do, it will make more sense to use it.

But for occasional use, make files are just easier
for me to use, and they do the job for the small
project I have now, and make integrate easier for me
with what I have since I use make for everything else.
