A complete ENABLE_ALL build of all components in this repository is a *very* large build, and developers not needing some subset of the components may wish to avoid paying the price of building *all* submodules. That is why the USE_* options are defined - ENABLE_ALL will only enable those submodules that indicate they are used by at least one active USE_* option. By default, USE_BRLCAD, USE_GDAL and USE_TCL are enabled as they collectively define the most common set of dependencies used by a standard BRL-CAD build. However, if a developer is building BRL-CAD without terrain support and without Tcl/Tk support, setting USE_GDAL and USE_TCL to OFF will skip compilation of those submodules. Available USE_* options are:

* USE_BRLCAD - the core BRL-CAD dependencies.
* USE_BRLCAD - Core BRL-CAD dependencies always needed to build BRL-CAD successfully.
* USE_BRLCAD_EXTRA - Optional BRL-CAD dependencies.
* USE_GDAL - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library and dependencies
* USE_TCL - Tcl/Tk and associated packages
* USE_QT - Qt - cross-platform software for creating graphical user interfaces
