It's funny that this quest for piece doesn't lead you to IDEs. They are the magic all-in-one boxes after all. > > I guess that'd rate around '2' or '3' on a scale from 0-5...

But this is not that interesting in the scons vs cmake fight. I just wanted to note that that what scons calls 'MSVS support' is only a little bit better than 'no support at all' (and that's still only after reading the mails here, I still haven't seen a scons generated .vcproj file).
