Yes, this is by design. The # operation also introduced global compiler vars. Note that especially on Windows you'll have serious trouble when workinq with path's that contain hashes: For example, CHM files in such path's won't open, too. Its generally not advised to use path's with hashes. Use an underscore instead if you want to change the path order. This will also work with C::B.

Good day, everybody.

I think it is not right when software tells user what symbols to use and what not. I'm forbidden to use '#' today, and tomorrow I will be forbidden to use symbols of my own native Russian language, after tomorrow I will be permitted to use just 8 sybmols at names. Variety of programs will set their own limitations, overlaying each other, which are worsen the situation. It annoys users and keep users away from such software. A program should provide the user convenience, not limitations.

I will change CodeBlocks code to remove symbol '#' usage limitation in a good cause of community.
