I can see down-sides. We can of course convert existing files brought in by 'env import -t' (by making the import flexible) but I worry that there might be external tools that users have which expect the format to be a certain way. I agree creating a new format is not ideal - it's just that the existing C header format is so painful... Regards, Simon --485b3970d160c06fb304e9d48797--
