Co., Everett, WA Lines: 15I would like to know how the c interpreter is going to handle #defines efficiently. By efficiently i mean without 1. keeping 2 versions of each source line around and 2. without having to rescan each line and expand defines on the fly. I once considered a c interpreter. It all worked except the preprocessor. I eventually gave up the plan. Pascal interpreter? Sure. C interpreter? probably not. -- Kurt Guntheroth John Fluke Mfg.
