Hey, I don't want to burst your bubble (seems like you have a lot of fun retyping code :-) ) but it's gonna a pain in the ass for you to keep Genesis plus GX up-to-date with the changes I am or will be doing. It's also a great way to accidentally introduce bugs without noticing and eventually cut down some optimizations (not sure how compilers handle uninitialized variable, if they initialize them to zero, it's actually waste of CPU time).

I'm curious, why is it so important to make these tiny modifications to code syntax ? Any compiler should handle that fine already even if it isn't 100% C-whatever compliant, seems like a waste of time to me.
