http://www.quickiegames.com/tools/preprocessor/ Just wondering about this... Who has used it? Please tell me whatever you have to say about it, because I'm curious to try it out.

What does a preprocesor do?

I use it. Its very good. It has the "#option explicit" command that makes sure you declare your variables before using them using global,local or constant. It also has preprocessor #if,#endif and some others. Never use the #define for anything unless its a very special name that you wont use in your code. EX: #define && AND, will replace && with AND wherever its used, and i mean wherever its used, ex: local name$ = "Mr.&&Picklesworth" would become "Mr.AndPickelsworth" if you see what i mean. Overall its pretty good.

I hear it's pretty good.

The profiler is very useful, but it stopped working for me after a recent update.
