[Scons-dev] scons copyto /path/to/project

[anatoly techtonik]

1. Does argument order matters? Will that work?

scons scons-local SCONS_LOCAL_DIR=/path/to/where/I/want/it

2. There is no way at all to access such positional arguments?
Is it because all arguments are targets?
Using `--` doesn't produce an error for missing File target for
/path/to/where/I/want/it, so maybe it can still be used?

    scons scons-local -- /path/to/where/I/want/it
