Bake is great!  Thank you very much for writing it. I'm used to Borland C++
and Watcom C++, but new to EMX. Bake has been a great help to me.

I have a few wishes for the next version:

1. Some way to specify an environment variable or external file which
contains compiler options. For example I use -funsigned-char always, and
it's annoying to have to specify it at the top of every bakefile. Actually
the next wish covers this one too.

2. I want to use bake for my projects using Borland C++, Watcom C++ or any
other C++ compiler I might have. As I see it, you could fairly easily make
bake read a configuration file which defines the compiler, linker etc. and
any commandline options necessary. This should allow us to use bake with
any C/C++ compiler instead of only EMX.

If you don't have time to implement these wishes at this time, I would be
happy to do it for you, if I had the source.
