Hmm... marry emacs and gcc together, so that c-mode has some real meaning.. :-) The editor/compiler could keep a nice big parse tree in memory, being updated as you change lines. The editor could flag truely invalid lines because the incremental parser would see it. It'd be a "simple" matter of telling it when you wanted the output produced since the majority of the compile is already done. Argh, emacs, cpp, gcc and binutils merged into a monolith.. what a horrid thought... :-] > Terry Lambert > terry@lambert.org Cheers, -Peter
