Hey Alain. I have just put the latest of my scripts here

Next lesson - when doing scripted builds, error handling is important.
You want the entire build to stop immediately when something goes wrong,
instead of trying to continue, making the original error hard to find.

Is 'hours' an exaggeration, or is that really what you're seeing? On a

Well 5 minutes
