This brings me to my next question (see the fpc-devel mailing list too). If my source code only contains tab( #09) characters, and not spaces, it results in a much smaller file size. Does that also translate to FPC being able to parse that source code faster (less characters to parse), and does that also translate to the SynEdit component working faster (again, less characters to process)? Some form of speed test to compare the difference should be interesting. :-) Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net:8080/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
