Is there any easier way to setup new projects, with your own specific requirements? I'm asking this for Visual Studio .NET, but I'd imagine the answer applies to most compilers. Say, for example, when starting a new Allegro project, I need to setup 3 different configurations: - Debug - Profile - Release For each one, I need to link to a different library. I also need to tweak a few other linker/language settings in order for the application to be compiled correctly. However, instead of having to specify all of these options every time I start a new project, is there a way to automate the process? I have a feeling it's what a makefile is for. So, I googled around and haven't found much. There's also no definition of "makefile" in the Game Dictionary and there's no definition on Webopedia. Anyone care to shed some light? [smile] Thanks in advance, -hellz

Thanks as always, mate. [smile] I'll have a dig around more tomorrow (nearly 2am here [tears]). Oh, and you can submit an entry to the dictionary, here. [smile]

Thanks again,
