Description: Desk is a new version of the DeskLib library. The main changes are error handling, names, the directory structure, and an extra build for module code. There are also a few new functions and sub-libraries. The reason for the new library is that it wasn't possible to update DeskLib to use the new error handling while preserving backwards compatibility. Desk is released as a set of Zip files: * Core The main library, headers etc. * StrongHelp StrongHelp manual generated from the headers. * Sources All source code, makefiles etc etc. * Examples Not much in here yet. * Builds Differently compiled versions of the library (for modules, with debugging enabled etc)
