Unfortunately you are wrong Michalis. Ever heard of 'syncron-edit'? http://wiki.freepascal.org/New_IDE_features_since#Syncron-Edit You only need to change one variable, and all other instances will change to. And syncron-edit applies to any selection of text. So already works in more cases. I vote against adding this language feature. It's not pascal-like and actually makes the code harder to read. It also only applies to simple assignment. Case begin..end blocks can do much more than simple oneliners. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
