    in bug 888862, mention is made of a syntax for including literal bytes in your delphi program like this: "inline($EB/);"

    I don't have any compilable samples of this syntax. Does anyone?

      The submitter has also written an email addres below the text. Did you try to get in touch.

      Yes. He sent a sample that didn't work for me. His immediate problem was over, as he commented out this part of his code, formatted and uncommented. He didn't seem interested in fixing the formatter.

      I'm of course more concerned about the formatter's ability to parse any delphi source. There's something that I'm missing here - some syntactic element, or is this perhaps syntax in some old version of Turbopascal, or only for Kylix, or for some preprocessor.

        !!! What can one say that would be PC and printable in public? Not much :-(

        Here is how I intend to help: Once I've got this speed issue over, I intend to format a whole disk of pascal source --I have something like 5 GByte (>100,000 files).

        If it takes 6-7 secs per 1 MByte --as it currently can-- it is likley to take more than 24 hours to format all of them. I'd really like to be a fraction of that. That is also why I am so fixed on performance :-)

        Once it passes all that, I wonder if there will be much missing in JCF :-)
