I have struggled mightily with indent in the past. The problem is that there are many commenting styles in fractint. There is no one indent configuration that doesn't totally trash some of the comments extensively. I would LOVE, though, to have a consistent coding style. I guess what we have to do is decide a set of indent settings, determine what commenting style those settings support, and massage the comments as we touch files.
My intention was to dump the Allegro portion. Because it is so slow, it probably isn't good for much except as examples of how to set up the code.
OK. Now I am confused about what we propose to start with. Do you propose to convert your Allegro version (based on Rich's changes) back to X, and have that be our starting point? Does that have all the changes of the latest patch? If we are stopping work on the DOS version, I won't try to get the DOS version compiling with Watcom. Tim
