Makefile execution powered by pure Python
Project description
py-make
Bring basic Makefile support to any system with Python.
Inspired by work in tqdm.
Simply install then execute pymake in a directory containing a Makefile.
pyamke works on any platform (Linux, Windows, Mac, FreeBSD, Solaris/SunOS).
pymake does not require any library to run, just a vanilla Python interpreter will do.
