Hi all .  I've been mulling this over for a while, so I thought I'd see =
if anyone else would like this feature ... (just btw, I'm using Devcpp =
4.0 under Win98 ) . =20
 In the "directories" section of "compiler options" , you can specify =
the directories to be searched.  What I would find *really* useful would =
be if I could use a wildcard (*) to specify that *all subdirs* under =
this directory should be searched as well.  For example -=20

 "C:\devcpp\foo\; C:\mydir\* "

  This would be a lot more concise than doing what is needed at the =
moment, i.e. , something like -=20

 "C:\devcpp\foo\; C:\mydir\subdir1; C:\mydir\subdir2\; =
C:\mydir\subdir1\anotherdir\ " ...... (and on and on .... :-)=20

 One of the biggest hassles in compiling programs is when files can't be =
found (arrgh) , so allowing the use of a wildcard like this would be =
_really_ useful .    Is there *anyone else*  who'd like to see this?  =20
 ( As an aside, if this _weren't_ to be implemented , maybe someone can =
point me to an easy-to-use directory-walking utility that runs under =
win98 .  )

 Thanks for your time - keen to hear your thoughts on this !  Bye for =
now ....
