in reply to [OT] Windows cmd.exe shell

Why not a Makefile? This is the proper way AFAIC.

Here is a skeleton project I wrote for compiling simple perl-embedding code using GNU Autotools: https://github.com/hadjiprocopis/perl-embed-autotools.

It uses already existing m4 macro AX_PERL_EXT (in m4/ax_perl_ext.m4) and my own m4 macro AX_PERL_EMBED_EXT (in m4/ax_perl_embed_ext.m4) to provide some more compilation variables.

sh bootstrap.sh && ./configure && make all will get you started if you are in a unix system. If on a windows system just execute the autotools commands in bootstrap.sh manually or in a batch file - provided you already have GNU Autotools installed, see https://www.gnu.org/software/automake.

    TIMTOWTDI, as always ;-)
    That looks like a cool little project.
    I'm not so sure that *I* will ever get around to making use of it - but ++ anyway.

    Cheers,
