No idea how to improve that." Dmitry, you've just created an immortal quote! "no monotone support" No Mercurial either:-( (Mercurial =3D the successor of Monotone? I recently reviewed a number of V= CSs and found Mercurial the best for me, in great part because of the excel= lent Windows port TortoiseHg.) I am using GPS only because my project depends on Adacore libraries (AWS, A= unit) that make it necessary to use Adacore to build it. (In a misterious w= ay to me. Gnatmake was such a beautiful tool, everything was clear at last,= then suddenly we're back to the black arts age, like with makefiles and au= toconf.) So I am "forced" to use GPS. (I'd rather use Notepad++. I hate visual "stud= ios". Waste of screen space. Visual spagetti. GPS is faulty anyway. Oh, wel= l...) So I'm learning the "GPS way". Trying to understand the "Project properties= " thing. Find it extremely awkward, confusing. A simple thing like putting = a source file in a project is ludricously hard. But I keep going. Some things are very useful viz. the navigation from a re= ference to its declaration (if the declaration is in the project...)
