Well unfortunately I'm invovled in a project know. And besides there is some guy who is already doing it (see the later posts). And I don't think that adding pre compiled headers to GCC is something like writing one or two source files ;-) So it is a bit too much IMHO asking any single guy to write it. Here wait a minute, why don't you do it Martin, nothings preventing you. If you can ask me to do it well I too can ask you to add support for precompiled headers to gcc too ;-) > > Right, Wrong, as usual ;-) > > MartinS Grendel Hi, I'm a signature virus. plz set me as your signature and help me spread :)
