I went, and I put together 3 quality of life snippets I use all the time and put it in a single makext.mk file that can be included in other Makefiles and wrote a basic readme for it.

This is not meant to be a replacement for other task runners, but I do think it can be useful to some of you.

Check it out and see if it makes sense to you.

Thanks for any feedback or comments.

Cheers
