Not quite. I'd rather have the "use simple regex to search for "#define
FUSE_*" expression" part in Py++ rather than in my own code. Also, I'm
not sure if a simple regex is really a good solution for this. The
following will probably fail already (i.e., give the value of FUSE_FOO
as the string 'FUSE_BLA' rather than the number 42):
#define FUSE_BLA 42
#define FUSE_FOO FUSE_BLA
Best,
