Maybe, but autotools is a pain in the arse.  I dislike it about as
much as I dislike LaTex which I find to be practically impenetrable.
Premake is being used in a number of good sized projects already, so
while it might be a ways from autotools, it's certainly not useless.

I agree 100% Wes. I use Premake for many, many projects. Both big ones and small. I second the use of it. I have also made Premake scripts for Lua itself, if anybody is interested. ;-)
