In the latter, all the code dealing with USE_DEBUG > (grep for it) seems understandable... That was a bit uncalled for. But anyway to clear up the misunderstanding, what I meant was that I was trying to grep through the different files to find out which varibles had any thing to do with the debug options and, by that, trace it back to where the variable was actually set to the values of interrest. And in that context, I found out, that there are lots of different files and I dont really understand what many of them actually do or how they affect the configuration process. So i was asking for some general explanations of how the whole configuration process works and what the most important files do for that process. -- Thomas Finneid email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mahogany-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mahogany-developers
