As it was suggested, and as I worked, in the aim of keeping things simple, is it possible to automatically alter the output of the post processor to not include the 2 potentially troublesome commands when Aspire saves the file?

Yes you can alter the Post file.
1. Open Aspire and open a random project.
2. Select the File menu at the top, and Open Application Data Folder.
3. Open the folder marked PostP.
4. Find and open your post file using a text editor (notepad, notepad++, etc.).
5. Scroll through the post file and delete/add what you need.

There is also a post processor editing guide you can access by clicking on the Help menu button at the top of the Aspire window.

I had done the first bit OK, now have modified the second so it does it automatically

Thanks again
