slate - a build system written in c99

Slate is a simple configuration-based build-system, akin to MSBuild without XML.

This configuration file generates the following compiler command with GCC.

cc -Wall -Werror -O2 -std=c99 -g src/memory.c src/parse.c src/platform.c src/slate.c src/string.c src/langs/c.c src/langs/cpp.c src/langs/cs.c src/langs/java.c -o slate

Slate supports C, C++, C#, and Java compilation.
