Re: [Plib-devel] release candidate awaits your testing.

I went through all warnings now and apart from two exceptions did all
that=20
can be done effectively.

One MSVC specific exception is that I did not commit the MSVC8
*.vcproj files.
These contain defines drastically reducing the warning count and do
not=20
clobber the MSVC6 files that have the *.dsp extension.
However, they do not work with MSVC7.X. My suggestion is
I commit them nevertheless and in some readme (which?) mention
MSVC7.X users should recreate the *.vcproj from the *.dsp themselves.

The other exception is warnings like these:

.\ssgSaveASC.cxx(167) : warning C4996: 'stricmp' was declared
deprecated
        C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\VC\include\string.h(213) : see declaration of 'stricmp'
        Message: 'The POSIX name for this item is deprecated. Instead,
use the ISO C++ conformant name: _stricmp. See online help for
details.'
			=09

If someone with more knowledge on portability can tell me, this is ok,
I will replace all=20
stricmp with _stricmp.
The same for _strnicmp. Also _fileno. Also _open, _close, _read (see
slMODfile.cxx).
