BTW - Have you any idea what it means when your air-bag light keeps
flashing? my manual doesn't cover it but I suspect it probebly means that
it's not happy.

I'm not advocating any specific change here, but it _does_ bother me 
that we have like 18 million different project files to 
maintain...Visual Studio, Xcode, the autoconf stuff, etc. There's a lot 
I don't like about CMake, but I _do_ like that you can target lots of 
non-Unix build systems with it.

If they continue to improve it, port it, and add more build targets, I 
think it could be a real winner for most projects.
