it's quite obvious that this is the long-term way to go :) i have a mail cooking for quite some time, primarily as some kind of feedback to viktor's oft-asked question as to make harbour packaging-friendly, but the whole splitting- and packaging-idea raises so many questions and problems that thus far i've never had the inspiration to sit tight long enough to organize my thoughts and actually write the mail. maybe my unconscious is thinking if i wait long enough, it writes itself :) -- [-] mkdir /nonexistent _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list (attachment size limit: 40KB) Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
