This is very gratifying to me.

I didn't misunderstand and I appreciate the support. I spent a fair 
amount of time trying make a simple solution.  I found lot's of scripts, 
libraries, advice, etc. etc.  But none of it boiled things down to the 
minimal essentials.  One result is that my advice doesn't really address 
the case compiled libraries.  I didn't addresses that because I couldn't 
figure a way to make it simple and most libraries are header only and 
the current advice was "good enough".  But now I realize I could 
maintain the same simplicity, support libraries which have to be 
compiled and perhaps address the concerns raised in this thread.
