That's why I asked you for help on that :-) I see you managed to get  
further with the auto-dependencies, and while I don't recall now where  
exactly I hit the wall during my previous attempts, seeing this  
example gave me the impulse to drag the old problem back to the surface.

Exactly my thought. I was even thinking about a small tool a'la SAS/C  
for setting up the standard project directory.

This is where I usually keep non-textual assets/data files, sometimes  
special includes, etc. Usually those should be processed e.g. as  
RODATA. I didn't mean the GEOS resource files here as those are  
textual "sources", which reminds me that taking this type of source  
files automatically into account would also be nice.

Cordially,
