If THAT's your beef with Make, a pro tip: you can use ";" instead of TAB. Problem solved?

You want this: apt install remake remake --tasks remake --targets The "remake" tool is "GNU make" + some extra bells/whistles, most notably a REALLY usefule interactive debugger. It's 100% compatible

Just use Debian. Ubuntu is quite literally Debian+bullshit.

The Ricoh portables are fantastic, but they're SO wide. Know of anything comparably portable, but with a longer lens? Even the 35mm lens of the X100 is better.

Not the parent, but this is what the vnl-filter tool in the vnlog toolkit does: https://github.com/dkogan/vnlog It is indeed mind-blowingly useful in countless contexts. Disclaimer: I'm the author

Make is for tracking dependencies between targets, and rebuilding stuff. Looks like pyinvoke does some glorified scripting, or something. I will never understand why so many people have no idea how to use Make, but are convinced that it is

There's --targets and --tasks to handle such things, but it really depends on the Makefile in question. If you really want to know how it behaves, apt install remake.

It has an interactive debugger, which is not useless. Clearly.

The tool you want is remake: http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/remake/ This is GNU Make + a few patches. So it's 100% compatible. And you get an interactive debugger, and lots more stuff. For instance, to list out the

snaps are intended for non-power-users that don't want to deal with dependencies. Those users want things to mostly work without worrying about murky downsides. Auto-updating is exactly the right behavior. If this is of concern to you

Ubuntu's version numbers are year.month. So "Ubuntu 19" means it's of the 2019 vintage.

FYI, there's a patched Make providing (among other things) an interactive debugger: https://github.com/rocky/remake

If you think that, you should probably be using the commit-patch tool: https://github.com/caldwell/commit-patch Works on generic diff buffers, and is not tied to git specifically. And you can just edit the diff buffer,

Huh? Can I get a pointer about Ubuntu dropping multiarch? As for Debian's multiarch, it's a work in progress like most things. If something doesn't work, please file a bug.

This is becoming a really crowded space. Some other similar tools that make slightly different design choices and that have variable envisioned use cases: - https://github.com/dkogan/vnlog - https://csvkit.r
