Can I add a fourth - one I said to Dan I intended to do, but so far haven't managed: * The created C code could benefit from #line directives to track where C code came from the input .pmc file, so that compiler errors are reported for the original .pmc file. Perl 5's xsubpp does this well, using #line directives to switch between foo.c and foo.xs, depending on whether that section of code was human written, or autogenerated. It makes things much easier while developing. Of course, I may find time to do this before anyone else does, but anyone is welcome to beat me to it. Nicholas Clark
