This is fantastic. I haven't tried it out yet, but I'll give it a shot for the paper I'm writing.

BTW, even with a "uniform" Linux environment, I've been finding so many differences in the behavior of libraries that it's driving me nuts. This will be a nice way to get past, for example, inconsistencies in wxWidgets.

what research field are you working in? please email me personally if you'd like to chat more about how cde can help your workflow. i'm interested in collecting real-life case studies and anecdotes

I replied to you via email, but thought I'd post it here as well in case anyone else had suggestions.

I've been thinking about a general purpose experimentation framework for research. Over the last 5 years, I've been re-writing parts of this framework for different projects and wish I had spent some time generalizing and packaging it.

The workflow is:

dataset -> experimental parameters -> code+libraries (this is where the trouble often is) -> result files (plain text, hundreds!) -> analysis (generally in R) -> selectively plotting results
