The idea here is just as an alternative for one to use the space after the 'end' as a scratch paper... and you can turn those lines to live/sleep by moving the 'end' directive. You know typing something rather long for testing purpose and then find that you have to temporary disable those line, only way to do that is manually commented all lines... or put in a temporary conditional compile with #if and remove the conditional compile after it was done. But playing around with 'end' should be an easy alternative. This is especially true when you're testing a complex code and you want to revert original condition before you apply the change. As I said this is just an alternative... I seldom use it actually but occasionally in some special circumstances, I found that it's useful. -- WH Tan -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
