BAM "dev" and "prod" directives

[CharlieJV]

I guess an ordinary QB64(PE) program having $IF THESE THEN preprocessor directives, ...strip...

Ah, I was looking at https://qb64phoenix.com/qb64wiki/index.p...tacommands in the wiki.

Whatever metacommands do exist for QB64(pe), I consider them non-existent if they are not easy to be discovered where one would expect to discover them.

Wouldn't one expect to find them on the metacommands page in the wiki?  Metacommand - QB64 Phoenix Edition Wiki

Sure if that was easy to find.  I don't know where that link exists on the wiki.  Where is that link hidden?  Wherever it is, if it is fine for the majority, leave it there.  I'm not looking for that site to accommodate my needs.

It was easy for me to find, however, the Metacommands section in the Keyword Reference - By usage page.

If there is anything I loathe more than something that seems undocumented, it is inconsistent documentation.

But good documentation is a hard thing to do, especially if the technology and the process aren't really inviting  (from my perspective because of the challenges I deal with).  But I also don't see folk clamoring to bump up the quality of the documentation because for most folk, it is no fun and is often a thankless job.
