You're bringing back memories from couple months ago. The first time I
picked up Microwindows I was considering using it in a project that
needed palette manipulation on a 16 color VGA card. So I was doing some
hacking with the color defines and palette routines. That define
MWPF_PIXELFORMAT was one of the problem areas.
I got to thinking today that another option to the "Makefiel.rules -
Makefile.defs" approach would be to move the define macros, include
directory macros, library macros, etc. into a section at the end of the
config file, rather than making a new ".defs" file. That way application
build scripts only have to point to the config file to find out how
Microwindows was built.
