Strict compilation mode

[John]

    I also find strict compilation mode critical.  Without out it I would spend a lot of time fixing simple typos.  I am also using 6.1.2 to develop an application that is reasonably large (the main stack has sub stacks, there are a fair number of cards, and probably something on the order of 5K lines of code).

    I am not having any particular issue with it.  My main gripe with 6.X is how slow things can occasionally get when the project browser is showing something that I am programmatically altering (I have a group in which a hundred or so objects are being destroyed, created, moved around, etc.).

My 2¢,
John
