Why does it even have them? There is no good purpose except to make the main sma less lines... which is pointless. No other plugin is going to use them, they are not setup to be used in this way. Would be easier to make changes and also easier for other people to compile it. Also it would then compile with the online compiler.

Basically I suggest taking each include and just pasting it into the main SMA and getting rid of the useless things.

I second that, its like he put them in there just to make it more complicated to edit / impossible to use the online compiler as well.

Will never happen. Include files make the plugin's code more organized and easier to follow. I like include files, and I will keep them.
It is easier to ctrl+tab to a seperate include file to find the code you're looking for rather than scroll down 10,000 lines of code in one file.

Also, the include files were not meant for code reuse, but that is not the only purpose of include files.

It is not hard to compile anyway, you can do it!

Come to think of it, if it is that desirable I guess we could release the regular multi-file source, along with a single-file source. Wouldn't be hard to take the latest version and combine them in one file before release.

Best of both worlds I guess, ya, I think that is a good idea now.
Sorry for the negativity at first, I just don't want to completely get rid of the multi-file source..
