Hello all,

Googling around at the weekend I found out the ms10 was ancient, so I got
the nightly build and discovered that the install rule will do almost
exactly what I wanted for my distro...That's the good news :)

However, there is still the issue of renaming the final target.
Is there a way to do something like

PROJ_NAME = hello ;

Install bin : $(PROJ_NAME)
        : <variant>debug:<name>$(PROJ_NAME)_d
        : <variant>release:<name>$(PROJ_NAME)_r
        ;

I know you can do things like <variant>release:<location>bin/release, but
it's quite important that my executables live in the same place.
(BTW, this doesn't have to be part of the install rule. If there is a way
to build the targets like that in the first place, that's even better).

Thx in advance,
Kos.
