Hi Eli and others,

No, quotation marks don't help either. I dont know what it is telling
me that the file cannot be found?!
Here are a series of cases I tried. Notice 1) I have changed 42init.c
to FTinit.c and 2) b filename:functionname works so I know the file
exist in my program... please help :(

I have a similar post on mac xcode mailling list. I will share any
findings there.

Thanks!
