Do you mean that it works both with ISE and SmartEiffel?

I'd like it to work with both. It currently works only with ISE in the 
form listed below. Moving the "." out of the statement will generate 
bogus compile statements. ISE sticks a "-I" at the beginning of an 
include line in the ACE file, hence the ".".

What I was thinking is more along the lines of:
    <option name="header" external="`pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0`"/>
where "external" is a keyword to gexace to execute the statement and 
process the results and use that in the header. For example, the line 
above would be equivilent to:

   <option name="header" value="-I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 
-I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 
-I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 
-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include"/>



PS: I will be in a meeting during the next 3 days, so I didn't
have time to try this suggestion myself. Furthermore I will
probably not be able to answer my emails until the beginning
of next week.

Have fun in meeting hell.
