Description f.alexander.wilms 2016-06-08 10:12:45 UTC 
When doing coursework, I don't need autogen and configure files, but write only a very simple Makefile.

It would be nice if I could still compile the project with a click of a button. Builder would then just run make in the directory of the currently opened file (and ask where to run it if files from several directories are opened).

I have several folders in my project, each containing a single Makefile, but I'm not sure if that's how projects were intended to be used.

I imagine such a build configuration would suffice for many students.
