Coding in C++ is *MUCH* faster than in pure C ;o) Besides of that C++
gives:

      * support for STL containers
      * faster and more robust code
      * access to C++ libraries
      * other OMF project are written in C++ - this will enable to
import some cool features directly from them

Hmmm, lets see now...

The Gnome Commander project has now migrated all code from
C to C++. We hope this change will boost the development
of the project and give both faster and more robust code.
This is a major change from a programming perspective, though
it does not mean any specific change from the user perspective,
other than hopefully a little more frequent new releases.

Something like that as news-text for the next release? (of course
together with other changes and new features).
