I think there was a translation error there. Let me reword that...
I had taken the time to split my code into two or three files ...for
example, my font was:
#include "othfont.h"
...this was done to keep the code clean and tidy - and, in this example, so
that I could use the same font in future code without maintaining two
copies of it.
All of my "#include's" were removed and the files were included by hand.
Net result: scruffy, unreuseable code

It will be interesting to see if it returns.
