I know that it works both ways. Hence my question: Should we *always* use the new notation, also in cases like this: <axis> <desc>Aileron</desc> <number> <linux>0</linux> <windows>0</windows> </number> ... (real-life example from wingman-extreme-digital-3d-win.xml!) or only where there's a difference between Linux and Windows? Or should everone do as he likes? m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
