I'm working on a system whereby you specify how you want something built in some independent way (a la Makefile.am), and you get Makefiles AND Visual Studio .dsp and .dsw files generated (and, in fact, the system has a "plugin" kind of architecture, so you could also generate CodeWarrior projects, KProject projects, or whatever... but for now I only have Makefile and .dsp generators). I'm just in the final stages of cleaning it up and finding a home for it (probably will end up on savannah). -- Ryan T.
