Hi Ernesto, This looks like a good change and I'd like to apply it. Could you re-submit this commit after doing the following.
1. ensure no lines go beyond 80 characters in length 2. remove all lines which include only closing parens (such lines are generally considered bad lisp style) 3. commit to your local git repository with "git commit" 4. format the patch with "git format-patch" Thanks, Eric Ernesto Durante <stobos...@gmail.com> writes: > Hi, > > I am using ob-C with gcc and Microsoft Visual C++.
