If we go with my proposal (which is nice and simple as a starter) it
will simply remake the .exe if any file in \lily is changed.  This
strikes me as a handy first step and would speed the development
process up.

I like it.

For a build-system virgin -- which you don't qualify as, since you
already a bit about build systems -- I'd say 2 hours.  For you,
maybe 1 hour.

It'd take me about 5 minutes.

I'm calling it 30 minutes, including testing, patch for review,
revising the patch to accommodate comments, testing+uploading new
patch, etc.

Start your stopwatch.  :)

Cheers,
- Graham


Patch attached. Not convinced it's worth a Rietveld for essentially one line? Works on my system.
