I just tried the latest Makefile, but it does not work. Are you working on it?

Are you trying the book archetype ?

Interesting. However, given that we are anyway relying on Pharo, why are the scripts not in Pharo?

Reimplementing make is just diluting manpower closer to homeopathic levels, and pillar is already a proven cause of burnout.

Yes, indeed. Looking deeper I realize that we could scavenge the information out of +include+ directives from pillar files. This should be enough to provide a tree index view of all files.

Check this issue; there are already a couple visitors that could be exporting this info, but they don't list everything, and don't output deps as makefile syntax
