 The `build` operation will execute all builders registered to produce build
 targets.
 
+If a `build` operation fails (e.g. due to a compilation failure), Rscons will
+log the failed commands.
+By default Rscons does not print the failed commands to the console so that it
+is easier for the user to focus on the actual compiler failure messages rather
+than the compilation command itself.
+However, if the user wishes to see the compilation commands, rscons can be
+invoked with the `-v` command-line option to show all complilation commands
+while building, or, alternatively, following a compilation failure, the user
+can invoke rscons with the -F option which will not rebuild but will show the
+failed command log from the previous build operation.

+###> Custom Configuration Checks
+
+The `Rsconscript` author can add custom configuration checks to be performed
+during the rscons `configure` operation.
+
+Here is an example from `build_tests/configure/custom_config_check.rb` showing
+a custom configuration check:
+
+```ruby
+${include build_tests/configure/custom_config_check.rb}
+```
+
+A custom configuration check is created by calling the `custom_check` method
+and passing a block.
+The contents of the block should perform the custom configuration checking
+logic.
+This logic can include executing a test command or other arbitrary operations.
+An argument `op` is passed to the block.
+This object is an instance of the [`ConfigureOp` class](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html)
+class and provides several methods that can be used to aid with the custom
+configuration check.
+The [`log_and_test_command`](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html#log_and_test_command-instance_method)
+method can be used to execute a test command and retrieve its results.
+The command and its output are also logged to the config.log file.
+The [`store_merge`](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html#store_merge-instance_method),
+[`store_append`](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html#store_append-instance_method),
+and [`store_parse`](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html#store_parse-instance_method)
+methods can be used to store construction variables for Environments created
+during the `build` operation.
+Finally, the [`complete`](../yard/Rscons/ConfigureOp.html#complete-instance_method)
+method can be used to complete the configuration check and indicate a success
+or failure.
+
+While performing a custom configuration check, it can sometimes be useful to
+be able to construct an Environment to use the set of default construction
+variables as defined so far in the configuration block, for example to expand
+construction variables to build a test command.
+The normal `Environment` class cannot be used within the `configure` block,
+however the [`BasicEnvironment`](../yard/Rscons/BasicEnvironment.html) class
+can be used for such a purpose.
+
+For example, to expand the current `${CCCMD}` value:
+
+```ruby
+configure do
+  custom_check("Checking something to do with CCCMD") do
+    command = BasicEnvironment.new.expand_varref("${CCCMD}")
+    # ...
+  end
+end
+```
+
+###> Global Configuration Check Options
+
+#### `:fail`
 
 If the `:fail` option is set to `false`, then the absence of the package or
 program requested will not result in the configure option failing.
+The `:fail` option defaults to `true` if the `:set_define` option is not
+defined, and defaults to `false` if the `:set_define` option is defined.
 
-##### `:set_define`
+#### `:on_fail`
+
+The `:on_fail` option can be set to a String or a Proc object. If the
+configuration operation fails (or would fail), the given message is printed
+or the Proc is called.
+
+Examples:
+
+```ruby
+configure do
+  check_c_compiler "special-gcc", on_fail: "First install special gcc!"
+end
+
+configure do
+  package_hint = lambda do
+    puts "The following packages must be installed to build this project:"

+  check_lib "SDL2", on_fail: package_hint

+###> Phony Targets
+
+rscons supports phony build targets.
+Normally, a builder produces an output file, and executes whenever the input
+files or command have changed.
+A phony build target can be used to register a builder that does not produce
+an output file.
+A custom builder can take some action when the input files change even if it
+does not produce an output file.
+Such a builder could perform verification or run a test on its source files,
+possibly failing if some conditions are not met.
+It could also simply output something to the console, such as an analysis of
+the source file, whenever it changes.
+A phony target is signified by passing a Symbol instead of a String as the
+first parameter (target) to a builder method.

+###> Barriers
+
+Normally Rscons will parallelize all builders.
+A barrier can be used to separate sets of build targets.
+All build targets registered before the barrier is created will be built before
+Rscons will schedule any build targets after the barrier.
+In other words, build targets are not parallelized across a barrier.
+
+```ruby
+env.barrier
+```
+
+##> Global Build Script Functionality
+
+###> Using Subsidiary Build Scripts
+
+The `rscons` build script method can be used to invoke an rscons subprocess to
+perform an operation using a subsidiary rscons build script.
+This can be used, for example, when a subproject is imported and a top-level
+`configure` or `build` operation should also perform the same operation in the
+subproject directory.
+
+The first argument to the `rscons` method specifies either a directory name, or
+the path to the subsidiary Rsconscript file to execute.
+Any additional arguments are passed to `rscons` when it executes the subsidiary
+script.
+`rscons` will change working directories to the directory containing the
+subsidiary script when executing it.
+
+For example:
+
+```ruby
+configure do
+  rscons "subproject", "configure"
+end
+
+build do
+  rscons "subproject/Rsconscript", "build"
+end
+```
+
+It is also perfectly valid to perform a different operation in the subsidiary
+script from the one being performed in the top-level script.
+For example, in a project that requires a particular cross compiler, the
+top-level `configure` script could build the necessary cross compiler using a
+subsidiary build script.
+This could look something like:
+
+```ruby
+configure do
+  rscons "cross/Rsconscript"
+  check_c_compiler "i686-elf-gcc"
+end
+```
+
+This would build, and if necessary first configure, using the cross/Rsconscript
+subsidiary build script.
+Subsidiary build scripts are executed from within the directory containing the
+build script.
+
+###> PATH Management
+
+`rscons` provides methods for management of the `PATH` environment variable.
+
+The `path_append` and `path_prepend` methods can be used to append or prepend
+a path to the `PATH` environment variable.
+
+```ruby
+path_prepend "i686-elf-gcc/bin"
+```
+
+The `path_set` method sets the `PATH` environment variable to the given
+Array or String.
+The `path_components` method returns an Array of the components in the `PATH`
+environment variable.
