Is that sufficient to build dool?

It is in the radar, antonio finished compd just about the same time you
announced dsss.. - and solved one problem - site specific makefiles...
so dsss may be a better long term option...

I believe that the code for compd was intended to be used by leds as
well, so I'm not sure of the direction here, - as the build options in
leds would probably interact with compd files. - if that was changed to
use dsss, we would probably have to dig into dsss and understand how
they could work together.

I'm quite interested in seeing what can be done here.
