Hi Aitor,

I don't think Nasm provides any way to do that. I wish I had a better
answer for ya!

The only workaround I can think of would be a batch or script file that
collects that information...

if exist "file001" do echo %define HAVE_FILE001 >> filelist.inc
if exist "file002"...

... pretty ugly. I'll cc this to a couple other lists... maybe somebody
will have some better ideas...

Best,
Frank
