Summary: suggestions on improving lsc for possible comment.


In LightspeedC, I would like to see something similar to Aztec's precompiled
headers - that is, some encoded version of .h files which the compiler can
read and process quickly.
And how about unlimited global/static space?  I am sick of having to similate
large arrays through ptrs (or hndls)...if not doing it in a more efficient way,
then there should at least be a way to have the compiler handle this for you.
Finally, on the first compile, there tends to be many errors in one's prgm.
It wouldn't hurt to have an option to have LSC list out maybe 15-20 errors to a
window instead of stopping on each error.
(Of course,t here's Switcher type performance under MultiFinder, but customer
support has already promised such in an upcoming upgrade.)
