I do have some understanding of Make. BTW, Rake is basically a Make
implementation that uses Ruby for the makefiles, it's _a lot_ better
than Make.
Sorry, if you expect Make to be a build system, you don't understand
Make :)
Make is only a small part of the picture, is just a dependency tracking
program, and a pretty good one if you ask me (but I agree it could be
better), to work you have to specify the dependencies (manually or
automatically, it's up to you). I don't know Rake but I would be very
surprised if it's really better than Make at doing what Make was
designed for. *Very surprised*.
Ok, let me rephrase that. Rakefiles have a lot better syntax than makefiles.
