It also forces the target to carry its own weight, and doesn't force people uninterested to pay attention. But that is something for trunk branch, not for fixes like 2.6 But that works to ways, IOW it also means you can build in a complete unicode emulation without the 99.9% NT majority suffering from it (read: getting endless binary size discussions) (win9x support might be something that will get harder when more unicode centric releases as fpc/trunk.7.1 come out, though the unicode changes are glacial at the moment) -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
