The command find sys -type d |grep -v .svn
reveals the following subdirectories of sys (edited to get rid of redundancy): sys/mac sys/win32 sys/os2 sys/unix sys/dos/msc sys/dos/djgpp sys/dos/bcc sys/dos/emx sys/win-tk My judgement is sys/mac, sys/os2, sys/unix, sys/dos/msc, sys/dos/bcc, sys/dos/emx, and sys/win-tk are of historical interest only and simply confuse release tarball users so I have eliminated those directories from our next release tarball by modifying the list of regex's contained in CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES in our top-level CMakeLists.txt. That just leaves sys/dos/djgpp and sys/win32 from the sys tree that will currently be included in the tarball. I assume Andrew Roach wants to continue to support DJGPP (since there is no CMake-based alternative) so sys/dos/djgpp should stay in unless we hear differently from him. Important question for Arjen (the historical maintainer of sys/win32): Do you want to drop sys/win32 from the next release tarball now that most (all?) windows users are using the more powerful CMake alternative? Please go ahead and put "^${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/sys/win32" in the CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES list if your decision is to drop sys/win32. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
