Yes. It is and it does. I was working on this very thing just last
night trying to update my Oasis for CVS patch. Ran into a few
problems with the shop lists in genshp.c (I think--not looking at it
at the moment). Terminating the lists with (unsigned short int)~0
results in a lot of 65535's in the *.shp files which the load
procedures didn't seem to like very well. I will attempt to
compensate, probably tomorrow, when I have a chance to get back to
it. Of course it shouldn't be more than a couple hours work to
update Oasis 2.0.1 for CVS or bpl21 for CIRCLE_UNSIGNED_INDEX. If
anyone else wants to try beating me to it I certainly won't
complain. ;)
