48  =================
49 - V1.1 08.02.91 Added KillLine()
50 - V1.2 10.02.91 Added setextn() and index()

68 - V1.16 22.11.95 Moved ftostr() to generam.c
69 - V1.17 15.12.95 Added QueryStrStr()
70 - V1.18 18.12.95 OpenStdFiles() treats filename of - as stdin/stdout
71 - V1.19 05.02.96 OpenStdFiles() allows NULL pointers instead if filenames
72 - V1.20 18.09.96 Added padchar()
73 - V1.21 18.06.02 Added string.h
74 - V1.22 07.07.14 Use bl prefix for functions By: CTP
