I am just raising the issues that VC++ raises. It is just a warning and it can be disabled. I appreciate the language instruction. Thanks you for the thread. It doesn't seem that it will be that difficult to support VC++, for some definition of support. Most of the stuff is working. They only major departure that I have found so far is the lack the variable argument macros. I understand that it we want to keep KHTML focused on KDE. I'll work to make the Win32 stuff unintrusive.
