You're talking about strictly compiling. I'm pointing out that I do more than just compile when i switch to a terminal. Since it's a distributed system, I also have to re-compile multiple projects and libraries that link to it as well. I guess you really didn't answer my question at all, to be honest, but instead assumed you knew what I needed?
