I agree with you, Theo. This is, with apologies to you, the second most
cool software product I've worked with (sorry, Pick and Pick-alike
databases rock my world... infinite subselect capability and
post-relational, I'm sure you understand).
So, my question is now: is the best thing to do:
1: Update my source
2: recompile my system
3: patch as necessary
4: trust that make will only build the parts with new code
5: rinse and repeat
Is this the proper sequence? If so, I will submit a diff to one of the
upgrade (or patching faqs) if something along these lines is not in them.
Kind regards,
Jared Solomon
