46 Revision 1.6  1998/10/17 01:34:16  curt
47 C++ ifying ...
48
49 Revision 1.5  1998/09/29 02:03:00  curt
50 Added a brake + autopilot mods.
51
52 Revision 1.4  1998/08/06 12:46:40  curt
53 Header change.
54
55 Revision 1.3  1998/02/03 23:20:18  curt
56 Lots of little tweaks to fix various consistency problems discovered by
57 Solaris' CC.  Fixed a bug in fg_debug.c with how the fgPrintf() wrapper
58 passed arguments along to the real printf().  Also incorporated HUD changes
59 by Michele America.
60
61 Revision 1.2  1998/01/19 18:40:29  curt
62 Tons of little changes to clean up the code and to remove fatal errors
63 when building with the c++ compiler.
64
65 Revision 1.1  1997/05/29 00:10:02  curt
