Well, I don't have any more reasons to present.<div>Just tell me when you'll have finally decided about which parser to use as a base and if it is not the compiler's one (based on this discussion it seems too hard for me) I hereby offer my help in developing it. I can help in both design/coding or documenting. (after getting familiar with the code, of course) I'm a university student, I'll have some time in the summer. (though I don't promise this will be my first priority)</div>
<div>In case no constructive result comes out of this debate, obviously I can help with other parts of lazarus as well (if needed). :)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/5/31 Adem <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:listmember@letterboxes.org">listmember@letterboxes.org</a>></span><br>

How would *you* deal with macros?

I would not use a complete parser.

I would use a forgiving parser like the synedit highlighter or the
indentation parser of the codetools.

Why is this emphasis on the parser being '<i>forgiving</i>'?<br>
<br>
Why wouldn't I want to know about the ugly truth that the code I just
wrote will not compile?<br>
<br>
Why should I have to wait till I compile the rubbish I produced to find
out that it is indeed worthless?<br>
