Hi
I posted at the end of another thread, but maybe it was overlooked.
The docs have info on the include system, but the .conf file system for include files is not mentioned.
I was just wondering whether this had been dropped, or whether it was still going to be included in 4.0

exwc -C euinc.conf some.ex
it is listed under commandline options somewhere. the conf file is a text file with one include dir per line. you can also use more than one -i includedir as commandline options to the executables.

Probably just an oversight right now. The euinc.conf file is very important, very useful, and still functional.

euinc.conf may go away and replaced with eu.conf or something like that. The idea is that euinc.conf is designed to only affect the include path, but we now have many other parameters that may be of general interest, such as -d DEFINE_WORD, or -strict, or -batch... So, the eu.conf file would have the ability to specify additional include paths, define words, change run modes, etc... I think we are all in agreement that it would be a better way of doing it, just we have been busy with other tasks. Thus, we have not documented euinc.conf really because it will be changing.
