I would like to remove the macro as I really don't see how it helps. If there are no objections (except from Thomas which I expect :), I will remove the macro soon. Additionally, while searching for uses of this macro, I found several lines which were indented with spaces instead of tabs. That's not critical at all, just want to mention it. I guess this came by Thomas's patch. But it's easily fixable, so no big deal. >If the macro stays I suggest that the uses of the argument in the >macro body be enclosed in (), this is a standard way to reduce >problems in case arguments are expressions. Yes, this is the very least. Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc
