To run:

• The entire directory: In the root directory, type scons in the command line. This should run everything that is flagged as being modified or with dependencies that have been modified.
• A single directory of targets: scons build/data will re-build the build/data folder if it is out of sync, without rebuilding other files.
• A single target file: scons build/paper/paper.pdf will re-run only the code needed to update build/paper/paper.pdf without rebuilding other files.
• Making a release: See here.
