Some compiler options take function names as arguments. -xinline=%none means don't inline any functions, and -xinline=none means inline the function called "none". *Most* options don't have to accept function names, but for unnecessary consistency we have historically used '%' for all the keyword values. Officially we are trying to remove the need for '%' in the compiler syntax, where possible. Unofficially, there are still lots that use '%' but shouldn't have to. The best bet is to check the documentation for the correct spelling. --chris
