It is really just an annoyance seeing these repeated warnings about unused variables flutter through on the screen while waiting for the make to finish. Since it is a make command with repeated executions there is really nothing one can do about it and due to the speed and limited size of the terminal buffer you are unlikely to ever be able to check them afterwards in any case... And those blank lines you mention, which just create black screens now and then seem totally superfluous. Anyway, no functional problem, just an annoyance. Wanted to check if there was a switch like "quiet" or similar to make. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
