Corrected.

The problem is that I want data-binary-compatibility with the other
versions. I use my own graphical font system, so that the people with
the old versions only need to download the new binary for Linux.
But I will have a look, which files really need to be recoded.

Where can I find information how to do it? I looked through the
manpages, but that wasn´t very helpful. I will try it with kdevelop.

Yes, I will do it.

Yes, I know. They call it modularization. :)
But I developed my own system which is called Test-Include Files.
Those *.cpp Files are compileable on their own, and provide a simple
test system. I described the system in my article about the Dialog
language.

Ok, I will do it.
