Hi, while you are at it, here is one point often not taken into account, even it's a rare one but if it happens extremly hard to track down. It's not ensured that you get: 0 = false and 1 = true in C/C++. The standard defines TRUE as != 0 So it could even be 255 (setting all bits for example). This is compiler implementation dependent.

If porting Vortex to more platforms is on the roadmap or other people doing it. They might be hit by code that requires TURE = 1.
