Just to make this more searchable in the archives, use of plshade's "defined" feature is only demonstrated when giving x16c the "-exclude" option. Compare the output of these two commands... x16c -dev xwin -exclude x16c -dev xwin -exclude -nx 10 -ny 10 > Thus, I don't think there is any > language interface that currently propagates what C does with > "defined", Actually, the ocaml bindings seem to support this concept. > and > I suggest you skip it for Ruby as well. Too late! :-) I've already borrowed from the approach taken in the ocaml bindings.
