Personally, I prefer to see filenames. Or function names. Sometimes it's rather unobvious how to go from module name to filename, due to a) multiple .o files being linked together, b) subsystems which insist on #including .c files in .c files (usb...) and c) the module system's cute habit of replacing underscores with dashes in module names. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
