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.

Last update: 14th Oct 2003, version 1.1 (now includes rules based on a pattern tree)

''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]''

2010-08-19: move to fossil

I am now hosting this on fossil. Feel free to contribute there, and pull/clone files, plus add tickets or whatnot.

Fossil repository available here: https://chiselapp.com/user/Setok/repository/smake/home

It currently includes the one file from my own Tcl "codebase" that is needed for smake. Not optimal, as codebase may be edited and updated elsewhere, but does make getting a ready working clone easier.
