(note that external preprocessing also creates an extra level above FPC preprocessing. There is no conflict between those, because external is always first. I agree fully with Michael. It is the usual "if all you have is a hammer" argument) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
