Re: Is this correct? (contradicting includes)

Please read the CPP manual.  Zack put a lot of effort into rewriting
it; I put a lot of effort into making sure a whole bunch of things
were documented that never used to be before he rewrote it.  It is now
an excellent, and almost complete, reference for how CPP works from
the user's point of view.

With only 1 exception, #include "" looks in the directory of the
current file first.  To find out the exception, you should read the
manual.
