***DISCLAIMER***: _These notes are from the defunct k8 project which_
_precedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26!_
_The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as such_
_all of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is no_
_longer my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it._

Checking out gradle to see if it can suit my needs. And I hate the curly brace

A bit too complex and splayed out, although it has a GUI of sorts. However
everything runs a bit slowly. I suppose what I should do in this case now is
write my own build time checker thing to see if any files changes, although
that will be complex.

Appears that Gradle does not suit my needs, seems I would have to do some
major restructuring just to make it happy. Probably stems from the "Every
other Java developer does it this way so you must too".

Also seems you cannot do an out of tree build, so you must pollute your source
tree and waste SSD cycles.
