Like I wrote previously, a greater granularity of information too. Maybe something that parses out runtime and compile time information related to the flag settings, even if it only works after a given package is installed. Maybe a preprocessor (parser) that diffs the code that is to be compiled, with and without a given flag selected? Or at leaast references additional code. Other ideas for the basis of an advance mechanism is of interest to me. thx, James
