Merlin’s Delphi Forge

There are various ways to include compiler definitions into your source code. One of them is editing your project’s options and another can be including a definition file (*.inc). Although both of these make sense and should be used imagine a 1 file source. Why would you even bother with editing it’s options or including a second file for something that can be in the file already. This can save a lot of time when distributing the code.
Instead of us editing the files manually Delphi and Kylix have a shortcut that includes the compiler definition for us. THe shortcut is Ctrl + O + O (twice ) with Ctrl down).
