+@file posh.h
+@author Brian Hook
+@version 1.3.002
+
+Header file for POSH, the Portable Open Source Harness project.
+
+NOTE: Unlike most header files, this one is designed to be included
+multiple times, which is why it does not have the @#ifndef/@#define
+preamble.
+
+POSH relies on environment specified preprocessor symbols in order
+to infer as much as possible about the target OS/architecture and
+the host compiler capabilities.
+
+NOTE: POSH is simple and focused. It attempts to provide basic
+functionality and information, but it does NOT attempt to emulate
+missing functionality.  I am also not willing to make POSH dirty
+and hackish to support truly ancient and/or outmoded and/or bizarre
+technologies such as non-ANSI compilers, systems with non-IEEE
+floating point formats, segmented 16-bit operating systems, etc.
+
+Please refer to the accompanying HTML documentation or visit
+http://www.poshlib.org for more information on how to use POSH.

+
+REVISION:
+
+I've been lax about revision histories, so this starts at, um, 1.3.001.
+Sorry for any inconveniences.
+
+1.3.002 - 8/29/2006 - Removed FORCE_DOXYGEN stuff
+1.3.001 - 2/23/2006 - Incorporated fix for bug reported by Bill Cary,
+                      where I was not detecting Visual Studio
+                      compilation on x86-64 systems.  Added check for
+                      _M_X64 which should fix that.
