rake

NAME

rake - simple build program similar to make

SYNOPSIS

rake [options]

DESCRIPTION

rake has the following features:

* Rakefiles (rake's version of Makefiles) are completely defined in
  standard Ruby syntax.  No XML files to edit.  No quirky Makefile
  syntax to worry about (is that a tab or a space?)

* Users can specify tasks with prerequisites.

* Rake supports rule patterns to sythesize implicit tasks.

* Rake is lightweight. It can be distributed with other projects as a
  single file.  Projects that depend upon rake do not require that
  rake be installed on target systems.
