[Aime-devel] Source files

[Nick F. <nf...@ru...>]

Just a couple things.  First of all, after looking at MSVC++6 for a
while, I can't see a way to force it to like our .cc extensions for
files.  It uses either .cpp or .cxx.  If we want to do a windows port, we
will probablly have to convert all of our source file names to a new
extension.  Since it seems we want a windows port, I guess the question
isn't whether or not to do this but when and to what extension?

The other issue is with checking files into CVS.  I've found and
accidentally checked in files that use the windows \r\n newline instead of
the unix \n.  Could we put a filter in the cvswrappers file in the CVS
settings to remove any \r characters from files being checked in?  I think
we should try to keep the files uniform when it comes to newlines.  Plus 
I have gotten \r\r\n in some of my files when working with them in
windows which looks ugly and shows that if files were checked in like
this, someday we could get files with \r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\n in them.  It
might also be nice to expand tabs into spaces but that isn't as important.

And lastly, I changed the encryption to use MD5 instead of
crypt.  Makepasswd has been updated as well so everyone update your
passwords!
