my second thought is to tweak at pp-level

Everything what can be done on PP level can also be done in source
code so there is no reason to make such things on PP level.

thnx for the tips

just to explain, regarding pp, of course that it can be done in source, but tweaking pp, i may have prg source totaly untouched [which is important to keep application compatibility, no need for additional quality testing]
like this part replacing std.ch

...
use <(db)> => dbusearea(,,linux(<(db)>),...)
...

and with 'clipper -u xx.ch' i may have just a few required definitions altered

so this additional function 'linux()' may at run-time adjust db-open-filename string internaly, 'linux()' function may each time check the platform and adjust if neccessary
or check only the first time, and later just use the static status

thnx again
