Subject: Progress: featureless make.
X-Git-Tag: 0.5.0~83
X-Git-Url: https://git.kevux.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c06221052011f76fcbeec325bb2f4f5b6a6429b2;p=fll

Progress: featureless make.

Remove the custom color toggler based on verbosity because I changed my mind.

Allow assigning define as a fakefile operation.

Begin stubbing out the operations.
Implement the operations that can easily be implemented.

Documentation updates.
