One technique I use is to use <preset|macro|scriptdef> internally to your build file. You can set these conditionally depending on what "mode" you are running in, but this is only useful up to a point, mostly for fairly atomic operations. This technique could become exponentially difficult with each subsequent "task". FWIW, Matt > > Marc H.
