That presupposes that the use of extrafpc.cfg is a common thing.
It is not, this is something that Graeme uses.
FPC has had support for such extra config files since I started using FPC
(+-5 years ago). It's also a documented feature, so it's not like I'm using
some corner case hack - it's a legit feature of FPC, and a very handy one.
Secondly, Lazarus IDE has also had support for reading such extra config
files since I started using Lazarus (also 5+ years ago).
This FPC feature has been in existence for a very long time.
I know that, but that is not what I meant.
What I meant is that you use the config file feature consistently in the
same way, whereas other people don't. Therefor, basing a feature on the way
you work is no better than including a .lpi file (which happens to be the
way I work).
What is more, the cfg file does not contain any project information: what
files are part of the project.
Michael.
