## Description

Calls `bakefile` with flags listed in description file (`Bakefiles.bkgen` or file specified using the --desc option).

## Command Line Options

`--desc`=DESCFILE

  Uses given description file instead of `Bakefiles.bkgen`.

`--formats`=FORMATS

  Calls Bakefile to generate only makefiles for specified formats. FORMATS is comma-separed list of format names. Formats not included in the list are ignored even if they are listed in <add-formats> tags in the description file.

`--bakefiles`=BAKEFILES

  Calls Bakefile to generate makefiles only from bakefiles that match any wildcard in comma-separed list of wildcards in BAKEFILES. Input files specified using the <input> tag in the description file that don't match any of the wildcards are not processed.

`-D` VAR=VALUE

  Pass variable definition to Bakefile, overriding any definition in description file or the input bakefile.

`-I` PATH

  Add path to the list of directories where Bakefile looks for rules and output templates.

`-c`, `--clean`

  Removes all output files instead of generating them.

`--list-files`

  Prints the list of output files that would be generated instead of creating them. This command respects the constraints specified using the `--format` and `--bakefile` options. It can be used for example to create the list of all makefiles for given format.

`-j`, `--jobs`

  Number of jobs to run simultaneously. Default is the number of CPUs.

`-p`, `--pretend`

  Don't do anything, only display actions that would be performed.

`--dry-run`

  Process the bakefile normally, but instead of creating or modifying files, just print which files would be changed without actually modifying them.

`-k`, `--keep-going`

  Do not stop when a target fails.

`-B`, `--always-make`

  Pretend that all makefiles are out of date and regenerate all of them. `-f` and `-b` options are respected.

`-v`, `--verbose`

  Display detailed information.

`-V`, `--very-verbose`

  Display even more detailed information.

`--help`

  Display usage information for `bakefile_gen`
