The issue is that when you introduce this hint, it is almost certain that someone will ask `how to disable that hint?` on this list. IMO it would be a waste of time to implement such a thing. If I were a developer (hmm, actually I am one :-) ), and I would work on a project like FPC (meaning: in my free time, not getting paid to do the job), I would invest my time in something that actually means something, like fixing a bug, optimizing the RTL for a specific target, writing documentation, etc... We are programmers after all, not end users who want to be treated with silken gloves. You've only got 10 choices really: either you like the `with` statement, or you don't. In the latter case don't use it. Remember that the original question was about functionality, what this thread has now evolved into is, in my opinion, off-topic. -- Ewald _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
