Avoiding to make that mistake i would find important. However while I'm writing here I got the idea that with the new project layout also the system importer needs (can) change. It could simply copy the system file into an existing project. With that I think all existing bugs on the importer are obsolete and we would also not break any 4diac IDE projects. Would this be a way? Although I must say I still prefere to delete it. It frees resources for more important stuff. Cheers, Alois On Tue, 2020-03-24 at 19:30 +0100, Thomas I.
