Make wrapper: msg#00156

gnome.evolution.devel

Subject: Make wrapper

I wrote a small make wrapper that might be useful when doing large
builds (say, of evolution). It makes the build output be more brief, and
colorizes it, drawing attention towards warnings. It doesn't parse
everything correctly (e.g. linking executables), but it's good enough
for my purposes, at least.

I do

alias make='hpj-make'
alias old-make='/usr/bin/make'

in my .bashrc, so I can type make like normal, and fall back to an
unwrapped make in case the script culls some output I want.

In case anyone's interested, it's attached.

I also took a screenshot of an EDS build:

...I hope we can clean that up eventually :)
