It strikes me as starnge that given the current size of the Borland C++ 3.1
compiler package, that there is no source control system.

Currently, the full package has every conceivable feature you could want
except source control and OS/2 support [oops, wrong winge]. The only
inkling of this is .prj files but they only keep source files together and
do not maintain revisions.

Of course it is not difficult to use a 3rd party system such as GNU RCS but
it would be a huge improvement if we had such functionality as part of the
IDE.
