Nobody disputes the size of docs. I was more talking about not generating a Windows helpformat (on my todo for years), the array [] of ansistring at http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/unix/fpexecle.html not to speak of http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/format.html > It does what it was designed to do.

Needs more continuous struggle from people with a direct interest to not let the improvement rate decrease. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
