What I was saying was not specific for DWT but rather that _any_

whatsoever except the compiler itself?
Make?
And if you're smart, a verson control system. (Whether you use an IDE
or not.)
Make _is_ a build tool
Yes. But since it's on every Unix since almost 40 years back, it doesn't
count here. :-)
Besides, it has tons of other uses, too. One might as well say that a
text editor is a build tool. You construct (or erect) software with it. ;-)
Nope. it does count as an external build tool
