I like what I think you are suggesting. Are you suggesting you'd like
to see a patch where I add the functionality xcmd.sh into the existing
build.sh? If so I'll give that a whirl otherwise I'll need to re-read
your emails more carefully :-)

I'm not sure I understand your suggestion here. In my help notation
I'm giving the user the choice of using either a "-k" option or a
"--keep-going" option both of which do the exact same thing. This is
exactly what "make" accepts as options. build.sh has a "-n" option
which is equivalent. I chose "-k | --keep-going" to keep it similar to
"make". But you don't have to specify both the "-k" and "--keep-going"
options (you could, if you wanted to, but either one by itself would
be fine).
