        Oh yeah, I did catch that and fixed it, but I forgot to
        update the tar file.. thanks for catching that!

        OK, I'll check the /new/ files in with the "svn:eol-style CRLF"
        so that if nothing else, they can be svn diff'ed.

        Right, I was noticing that as well (inability to diff).

        I figure they may have made those files binary 'just to be safe',
        in case the text included inline binary or pseudo-binary data
        (icons, non-utf8 unicode, or who knows what Microsoft might do
        in those files)

        From what I can tell, they're pure ascii, and I hope they
        stay that way, and human readable. Unlike the SLN files that
        have GUIDs all throughout.

        Will follow up on the rest of your msg after I update my
        tar file, but following up on this:

        The default config is 'Debug', and only 'Release' and 'Debug'
        are the options there.

        And yes, I was only using ide/visualc/fltk.dsw, I did /not/ mess
        around at all with the ide/vc2005/fltk.sln file, which I guess is the
        "more modern" VS data format that even my VS7 seemed to prefer saving 
in.

        And yes, it's full of GUID hex code madness (similar to the Apple Xcode
        files).

        There didn't seem to be a way to "Save As" a .dsw file from my VS7,
        only .sln. Which is one reason I went to text editing the files.

        The other reason was the sheer insanity of checking all those damn
        file properties from the VS Gui.. there were like 50 or so screenfulls
        of data that had to be checked, and many fields were different because
        my VS7 has different defaults from the original VS that made the
        fltk.dsw file.. IDEs are madness in that respect!

        Right, a reason I won't touch the stuff.

        I figure folks who understand the new VS IDE better than I know the
        quick way to add the new files to those modern project files, other
        than having to visually compare all the properties through those teeny
        dialogs (that aren't even resizable..!)
