Thanks Vaclav.  I'm not very familiar with Bakefile yet - but from what I've read, it allows programmers to define a set of 'rules' which can then be used to generate makefiles (or projects) for commonly used compilers.

Has nobody thought to do the same thing in reverse?  i.e. read & filter a makefile (say) and deduce the rules, so that projects can be moved more easily between rival compilers.  I imagine that would be quite a useful tool.

Cheers,

John
