That would be nice. But I thought that you could use dsss without a 
dsss.conf and pass build options on the command line. If I run dsss 
without any options or files it says at the bottom: "All other options 
are passed through to rebuild and ultimately the compiler." but I 
noticed that didn't work using dsss 0.75.

I think I figured out how to do most of the things I wanted to do anyway 
now, thanks.
