    Trolling, flaming, and arguing

    There has been an increase in overall adversarial posting as of late. If any more threads devolve into OS X vs Windows, Mac vs. PC, iP[ao]d vs Android, they will be locked without prejudice and without warning. There are far too many cases where an intelligent conversation gets dragged...

    VS 2003 Code folding...

    Does anyone know if there's an option in Visual Studio 2003 to allow code folds on #if / #else / #endif compiler directives? I'm dealing with code that has a lot of compile-time definitions, and debugging it is getting to be a pain. I'd like to hide the code I know I am not compiling for...
