Please explain ? My point is there *is* a difference in behaviour between fpdoc in the bin directory and fpdoc in the utils\fpdoc directory (because fpdoc.css is only present in the latter) Yes, this difference may only appear if you first change the current directory to that directory. But no, this difference is not necessary IMO. Sorry, I can't explain it any way else.

What about the make files/fpmake etc? Anyway, while I can continue arguing this point (given pig-headedness already mentioned), I think I got across what I wanted to say... even though not everybody agrees ;) Thanks, Reinier _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
