Write coffeescript cake file in literate coffee

Question

I would like to write a Cakefile in litcoffee (as in Cakefile.litcoffee), is there a way to do that?

Answer 1

It appears that cake does not do any literate checking when it finds and runs your Cakefile. You can of course add this behaviour if you are so inclined.

I would still try running cake -l and adding a #!/usr/bin/env coffee -l shebang to your file, you never know, right?

Barring the above, for what it's worth, I've had success using Grunt with litcoffee using this incantation.
