That was the case at one time. If anything like this still exists, it
probably nothing you will ever use. :-)

That's essentially what I have, although I organize the source code a bit
differently since I have a lot that's not neccessarily related.
My trees look like:
\sla_dev\proj1
...
\sla_dev\proj2
\client1
...
\clientn
Shared stuff is in:
\lib
\lib2
\libw2
\include
and so on.
Each project directory will have whatever it needs from:
.\src
.\doc
.\bld
.\rel
and so on.
The structure does not matter as much as the consistency. I often need to
find things years later.

This works fine for command line stuff.

See above.

Sure you can. You get to define what a project is. You can always
organize by component. This is true even if the components are only
logical components and you build to to single exe. Makefiles handle all
of this easily enough.
