Is it just us, or would anyone else like to be able to use RTF in program listings? It seems like such a damn shame that you can't do in-line documentation in an .h file, instead of building a separate file for the class description. We can think of several two-file solutions (you edit foo.rtf.m. and use a make rule to create foo.m), but no one-file solutions without hacking cpp. You can't even pipe to cpp (we thought of that), because it won't look to your pipe for the #import/#include directives. It seems like it would be so easy for cpp, during the include phase, to notice it had RTF and pass it through a filter. Anyone else in favor of bugging NeXT to make this extension? -- Gregory H.
