If it's that important to you, do it yourself. The compiler is open source, pure, readable pascal. The spots where resolving single parameter macros is done are pretty easy to find. Parsing the macro text and replacement will be the hardest part, as Michael wrote. A bit of housekeeping for parameter-type lists, etc... -- Marc Santhoff <m.santh...@web.de> _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
