Re: Attention moderator - call for action please!

I'm not looking for someone to do the entire conversion.  I've got most of it already done.

The areas that give me fits are the macros.  C++ allows you to create the most obfuscated code with macros... it's one of the things I positively loathe about C... the ability to write code in such a manner as to force someone to seek out therapy after they've deciphered it. :(

So... the owner of this list... discourages conversions... or am I missing something here??

  You can find a list of header conversions on the JEDI+ homepage:
  http://jediplus.pjh2.de/api.php

  Many of the MS WinAPI headers are available in Marcel van Brakel's
  Windows API Interface Units:
  http://members.chello.nl/m.vanbrakel2/win32api.zip


  If you need a header conversion, that is not available in the list,
  please tell me the name of the header file, maybe I can help you.

  For furthermore questions I suggest the Borland newsgroup
  news:borland.public.delphi.nativeapi because the owner of this mailing
  list don't have a active header conversion project, rather they have
  anything against people, which are active in this job.

  Bye Peter.
