Ellery,

Have you seen the "def _PASSTHROUGH" construct:

#if def _PASSTHROUGH
void MyNativeCFunction()
{
    printf( "myVar = %d
", myVar );
}
#endif

You can place C code directly inside your FB source code file, and wrap it
around the "#if def _PASSTHROUGH" and "#endif" statement.

When translating, it skips over this section and places the text directly
into the translated C source code file.
