QF/types.h

[Joseph C. <kng...@d2...>]

Having finally decided I had a reason for adding to the list of standard
types, I took one look at quakeforge/include/QF and decided we need a new
header, QF/types.h..  This file will become the home of a few obvious
types like byte, u32, u16, vec3_t, etc.  It'll cut the number of silly
includes we have by a couple and make the course of things a little
easier.

I could have just kept QF/qtypes.h, but decided I really felt it should be
QF/qftypes.h.  On second thought though, that sounded repititous overly
redundant, and like I was repeating myself.  So I decided QF/types.h was
better all around.

I just wanted to mention the file is there and its purpose so maybe more
people will put declarations of the truly obvious stuff in there and save
the other headers for the specialised stuff.


I haven't committed it yet, but I've written the file as public domain
because it is so patently obvious.  I'd suggest a group Copyright, but I
don't think we're ready for that until we have everything in paper order
to make sure that we retain full rights to our own work before we look
that way.  I won't upload it till the group gives it a yea or nay though,
which I expect to take a couple days.
