I was thinking about --xx="y y" being windows style of quoting and windows originating apps stripping, and Unix style quoting is more over the entire parameter ( "--xx=y y" ), with the shell stripping (though the shell does support nesting iirc) But forget about it, for the thread, Michael's comment is perfectly valid, and I didn't meant to say this was better. It was meant as a side remark. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
