> There are so many things I think are so incredibly obvious ;-) You know, the wiki is free to edit: go ahead. I don't mind if somebody else thinks this is so important that he wants to take the time to remove info; a corrolary IMO is that people who take the trouble to add info, update the wiki etc should do as they see fit. (IOW: I'm not looking for edit wars and respect contributions/opinions from people like Jonas and DoDi who put effort into updating the wiki) A counter example: after trying to get practical examples, concrete documentation - e.g. the actual names for ($codepage xxx} into fpcdocs (see bug report I raised about console mode applications that worked in 2.6 and stopped working in trunk) I was told that isn't the way things are done. Now I'm not pushing any more and just put useful information on the wiki. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
