I have no idea why you have done what you have, now. Why bother rewriting it if you're going to do exactly what you said you were trying to avoid? You've got exactly what you had before, except instead of nicely organized into folders, it's one enormous mess.

You might as well have just let them live in their own folders and used their old makefiles. Then you could do this:

Code:
all:projectfolder1/projectoutputfile projectfolder2/projectoutputfile ...

projectfolder1/projectoutputfile:projectfolder1/Makefile
        make -C projectfolder1

projectfolder2/projectoutputfile:projectfolder2/Makefile
        make -C projectfolder2

Then you could do 'make all' and it would run make in each of the folders.

Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run(3pm)

NAME
Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run - run stuff in a dir where your dist is built VERSION
version 4.300020 SYNOPSIS
$ dzil run ./bin/myscript $ dzil run prove -bv t/mytest.t $ dzil run bash DESCRIPTION
This command will build your dist with Dist::Zilla, then build the distribution and then run a command in the build directory. It's something like doing this: dzil build rsync -avp My-Project-version/ .build/ cd .build perl Makefile.PL # or perl Build.PL make # or ./Build export PERL5LIB=$PWD/blib/lib:$PWD/blib/arch <your command as defined by rest of params> Except for the fact it's built directly in a subdir of .build (like .build/69105y2). A command returning with an non-zero error code will left the build directory behind for analysis, and "dzil" will exit with a non-zero status. Otherwise, the build directory will be removed and dzil will exit with status zero. If no run command is provided, a new default shell is invoked. This can be useful for testing your distribution as if it were installed. AUTHOR
