1. without warning in .e files
Question?
I discovered that Euphoria was no longer giving me warning messages such
as a variable being declared but not used. It had been working
previously. As I finally discovered, I included dialogs.e which has a
"without warning" statement in it. When I removed that statement, I
began getting warnings about my program again. Of course, I also got
warnings about two variables in dialog.e.
I checked, and msgbox.e and safe.e, both distribution files, also have
"without warning" statements. So, I assume I would get the same behavior
affecting my current program if I included either of these files.
Now the question.
Is it proper in Euphoria for a "without warning" statement in an include
file to affect my current source file on which I am working?

That's the way it works. I agree that it's probably not
what you want in most cases. I've been thinking of maybe
automatically turning off any "without warning" at the end
of each file. Or maybe Euphoria should
restore all previous with/without settings when it gets to
the end of an include file.

Rob,
Thanks for the info.
Now that I understand the proper behavior, I can code accordingly. But,
if you are going to fiddle with it, I think either option you mentioned
would be a worthwhile enhancement.
