[Scons-users] HOWTO select a toolchain

[William Blevins]

The User Guide has a section at the bottom that lists all the internal
variables. See Appendix A http://www.scons.org/doc/HTML/scons-user/apa.html

For example, to change the C++ compiler change the CXX variable and to set
the C compiler set the CC variable.

V/R,
William
