    // RSM_IGNORE_END
- Added feature to allow RSM Quality analysis to skip processing of source code 
  between text strings RSM_IGNORE_QUALITY_BEGIN to RSM_IGNORE_QUALITY END.  All 
  RSM processing between these two tokens is enabled except for RSM quality 
  notice analysis.
  Example
    // RSM_IGNORE_QUALITY_BEGIN
       Some source code which RSM processes except for quality notices.
    // RSM_IGNORE_QUALITY END
- Added a setting for the rsm.cfg file to ignore public C# events

  locate the work dif files relative to the work file.

Version 6.70
- IMPORTANT - For these new features you will have to regenerate a new rsm.cfg
  file.  Execute: rsm -y > rsm.cfg
- Added the Longest Common Sequence (LCS) algorithm to baseline line metrics
  differentials.  This algorithm is the basis for GNU Diff and WinMerge.  RSM
  enhances the differential analysis by adding the ability to sense the semantic
  differences of a comment, line of code or logical line of code change.

  requested the ability of specifying specific file extensions for specific 
  languages.  This feature has been added to the rsm.cfg file.
- File and function, class, struct content metrics has been separated so that
  Quality Notice limites can be specified for the file and (function, class, or 
  struct).

- Fixed issues in UNIX/Linux when processing -wd mode and using
  relative work file names where dif files could not be found.

Version 6.62
- Modified the metrics differential report such that when using the
  -wd option, equal code lines are accumulated to show the
  equality or "reuse" between baselines.  This report no longer displays
  differences for function count, quality notice or complexity as these
  metrics are derived only for the non -wd mode or for code size
  differentials.

Version 6.61

  Switches: Alway start with a dash i.e. -c -o -a
  Options: Immediately follow a switch and are a single
           character or number i.e. -fa -k3 -M4
  Compound Options: Immediately follow a switch as an attribute
           string delimited in quotation marks.  These strings
           have specific syntax, reference the on-line manual.
           i.e. -O"outputfile.txt" -w"create c:\basedir" -r"h,cpp c:\basedir"
- Changed the -wc to be a compound option where the syntax is now
  -w"create c:\baseline direcory"  where the user specifies baseline
  directory.

  keyword __declspec(..).

Version 5.32
- Maintenance release:  Enhanced C++ parser for Microsoft
  specific macro syntax in class files.

Version 5.31
- Maintenance release:  Fixed minor bug in compile date calculation.
  Enhanced C++ parser to adapt to embedded template syntax, thus
  providing correct metrics for C++ classes which contain std::map,
  etc..

Version 5.30
- Added -TL mode for Totals Only with no listings of functions etc..
- Added Notice for Maximum Functions per Class
- Added Hyperlinks for File names in Totals mode
- Fixed bug for disabling Notice #38
- Expanded Capability for nested classes from 8 to 64

Version 5.22
- Under the Windows operating system, file names are not case
  sensitive.  The default configuration file has been set to
  this setting.
- File extension case insensitivity is now supported.
  rsm -r h,cpp will retrieve file with H,h,CPP and cpp
  extensions
- Fixed a bug under NT and Windows 2000 where the 
  work files were not being written to the local directory.
  Version 5.20 supports an explicit directory for creating
  work files.
- Fixed bug where elipsis (...) were being captured as a
  notice in the catch(...) syntax.

Version 5.21
- Added the -Rd option to stop recursion at the specified -r
  folder.  This option will allow the end user to process metrics
  from Windows folders which contain spaces in their names.  As
  the Windows Shell terminal cannot parse correctly folder names
  with spaces, the end user must user the modified 8.3 file
  name or use the -r option of RSM which directly opens the directory

Version 5.20
- Added Visual Studio Interactive Mode
- Quality Notices can be interactive when RSM is
  integrated as a MS Visual Studio Tool.  A simple click
  will open the file and place the cursor at the
  line where the quality notice occurred.

- Added "namespace" as a active scope in the class and
  function identification.
- Fixed bug in calculating estimation factors based
  on flow complexity.

Version 4.07
- Software license with maintenance can run any version
  of RSM up to the software maintenance date. This will
  allow users with software maintenance to download and
  use the latest RSM from our web site.
- Fixed minor bug where a non-ANSI function was reported for an array
  declaration and initialization which spans multiple lines.

Version 4.06
- Modified cyclomatic complexity metric to match McCabe's
  definition by including "for" loops into the metrics,
  but added a configuration parameter to prevent for loops
  from being included in the cyclomatic complexity.
- Added a new license file format for allowing those users
  with software maintenance to directly download the latest
  version from the web without the license version check.

Version 4.05
- Added a configuration setting for RSM to create relative HTML
  hyperlinks.  The default setting is for RSM to create literal
  file names for HTML hyperlinks.

Version 4.04
- Modified parser to make blank lines in C style comments to be
  represented as blank lines and not count as comment lines.
- Added configuration settings for the maximum line length and
  maximum function name length quality checks.

Version 4.03

  Text files, except for readme.txt, are eliminated. Enhanced
  parser to address minor parsing issues for single line functions.

Version 4.02
- Visual C++ editor does not place end of line characters
  at the end of the last line in a source file. When the
  last line of code contains one character then an EOF
  instead of an EOL + EOF (end of line and end of file),
  RSM would miss the last character assuming it was a
  single '\n'. RSM now examines the last character of each
  line to ensure that an editor properly terminated each
  line and parses the source code accordingly.
- Fixed Java compatibility for assignments of arrays
  within class data structures.
- Fixed RSM trying to open txt, htm or html files from
  some shell interpreters using wild card arguments.
- Enhanced Java source code parsing.

  code. General cleanup and commenting of source code
  in preparation for next version.

Version 2.52

  not the use of the key word "struct". This matches
  the use of the "class" keyword, where "class" identifies
  a data structure not a declaration.
