Hi Nikola,

I think the best would be that you simply try out the war.py you found, 
if it seems to fit your needs. Nobody forces you to only use the SCons 
core functionality, adding your own extensions and tweaking the build 
system as you like is encouraged and intended.

And if you encounter any problems, show us a small example project and 
we can then try to help you make it work.

Just my 2 cents.

Best regards,

Dirk


P.S.: Two good places to check for supported Tools/Builders are

1.) the "Builders" and "Tools" appendices in the UserGuide, and
2.) the index of external Tool at http://www.scons.org/wiki/ToolsIndex
