so why is [import] not called [lib]? while i beg for consistency myself, you must not forget the context where things appear. "path" in the context of starting an application can well mean something different than in the context of creating a programme, dealing with sound files. also i would not mind renaming the "Path..." to "Search paths..." in the prefs panel (i would object in the startup flags, for compatibility reasons) > >> #3 could anybody tell me why [declare] does not take immediate effect? > > Check declare_new() in g_canvas.c this question was not a technical one. i understand the implementation and its implications pretty well. nevertheless, i find the behaviour confusing and unintuitive. to rephrase my question: #3 could anybody tell me, why [declare] is implemented in a way that it doesn't take immediate effect? fmasdr IOhannes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk7XwtUACgkQkX2Xpv6ydvSsggCfaPXKew2L08PVUH9MfY0JpQPz DDUAoL5v9eM3eG+m9SB/6bBc32dAMK3m =CFjY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
