Having e.g. GetWORD() return a WORD rather than int eliminates the need for
a cast when assigning to WORD variables. We use casts only when assigning
to a different (but same-sized) type.
Also, check for EOF explicitly when calling fgetc().
The compiler gets nervous when we (for example) pass in a size_t as an int
parameter, or assign an int to a char, or assign -1 to an unsigned type. By
adding appropriate casts, we inform the compiler that, yes, we know what
we're doing.
This change also upgrades a va_arg() type from char to int, as char is
always promoted to int when passed through '...'.
Whether or not there is any actual danger of these variables being used
without initialization, the warnings are noise, and getting rid of them is
trivial.
String literals in C++ are implicitly typed as 'const char *', and with
this change, their const-ness is maintained when assigning them to
variables or passing them as arguments. This significantly cuts down the
number of warnings generated by the compiler.
the documentation accordingly. Also rename the C example for
consistency, and update copyright dates.

This is used in three places now: the special colors in the config

It might have been better to use a single constraint for that,
plus all the line-curve or line-line cases, but it would break
backwards compatibility if I did that now, and perhaps be
confusing with the 'other' member (which is meaningless for
lines) anyways.

And add a separate menu option to align the view to the active

remap the bottom two graphics window toolbar icons to that and
"nearest iso view" instead of draw in 2d/3d, since people tended
to click on those without understanding and cause trouble.
And by default, we force a parallel projection; so the factory
