I don't think the shell trick is inelegant. Using the shell isn't something prohibited, it needs a little bit different code for a few different kind of platforms (win/dos, os2, *nix), but nothing heavy. Certainly better than inventing a new little script language. >> The other option is to stick to envvars, and in this case >> you can set these using hb_setenv() before invoking hbmk2 >> subprocess.

Or we have another option ? No, if you use the setenv method, you can't use anthing which is shell cmd processor specific, like 'call', '%variable%', etc. It looks insufficient for proper environment support, since users can't use their own init batches, plus such things as vcvarsall.bat. I'd vote for the .bat/.sh creation / execution method.
