For simplicity, I keep all my work in one huge file and use e.g. #ifdef ED .... #endif ED to extract the specific lines of C source that make up ed when i need to work on ed. (I'm usually working on ed when I should be working on cp; old habits die hard). This style of use means for example there is only one copy of main(int argc, char *argv[]) on the system, which saves a lot of space. I have some ideas for a similar technology to apply to 9fans. -rob
