but I don't have just one main.c, I have 20+ different apps, each with |
| 13 |
their own main.c, which I don't maintain, for which I'd have to issue |
| 14 |
updates. Not to mention educate the other programmers on including this |
| 15 |
ditty in each new app. |

the /proc way I can just update the class in the background, which is in |
| 18 |
cvs, and no one even knows the difference... |
