Hey Guys,

Working on a idea for a project and compiled up live on my Fedora 10  
box, with gcc version 4.3.2

Noticed a tone of warnings such as ...
"warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’"

This is from passing a "string" to a function that's expecting a  
char*. Can be cleaned up in 2 ways

1) "Fix" function prototypes from "char *" to "const char *" as  
appropriate
2) Add -Wno-write-strings to the CFLAGS in the Makefiles to suppress  
the warnings.

Which would be deemed suitable Ross ?
