smake is a utility that allows developers to build makefiles in 100% TCL (with the smake extensions). This allows one to use all the facilities that TCL provides to deal with large projects like namespaces, packages, database access etc.

''The small smake[http://people.fishpool.fi/~setok/proj/smake/] program by [Kristoffer Lawson] proved immensely useful for me; but it took me some while to figure out how to tweak it that it suited my needs perfectly - just put Tcl commands in the right place.  --[Philipp Roessler]''
