Hi Lutz, reviewing this thread, I see that I didn't replied you! Sorry, I do that right now:

Exactly, I do just the convertion part, so the SCM tool can do diffs and merges.

Yes, you can work on the VC2 files almost as if they were PRG files, with intellisense, Document View, etc. You just can't compile as PRG because it is not a valid PRG, but those modifications are translated to the binary when reconverting later.


And now something that you are interested on:

I've been asked for this many times, and I'm analyzing the possibility of separating a class per file. I'm doing a proof of concept right now to see what problems I find doing this.

For yes or no, I will say something about it soon. If yes, then surely will be a new option deactivated by default to not interfere with the default functionality.

Keep tuned! :)

Best Regards.-
