Tormod,
Yes, I guess "make" & "rules.make" will determine the tools. I was just clarifying the point that the older versions used older tools.
One thing that I would like to know... is there a way to list all available revisions? I would like to find out how far back you can go and still install the drivewire drivers. These drivers will no install on a vanilla OS9 system for some reason. It would be nice if that were possible. I know you do not use OS-9 but you do seem to know mercurial and lwtools as well as toolshed and their syntax's.

Is there a "Quick Reference Card" for Mercurial cmds?

Yes, so what? This is all transparent to the user running "make". The
correct tools will be invoked in any case. Toolshed is always needed,
and lwtools does not replace or conflict with any toolshed commands.
