Linker Error - Revision 13 under MSVC .NET 2003

Hello,

Thank you for the update.  When I first compiled revision 13 on Visual Studio .NET 2003, a linker error was produced:

opensonic error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function _mainCRTStartup
opensonic fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

This error occurs for the "opensonic" project only, not the "opensonic_launcher" project.   A short-term resolution which works for me was to open up linker options and set the subsystem to Windows.

I believe the bug was introduced when the "WIN32" flag was removed from line 130 of CMakeLists.txt during the last update.  I do not have a way to confirm if this error is specific to my setup.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. I'll fix CMakeLists.txt when I get home.

Probably that's the cause of the problem. At least when compiling with MinGW on Windows, the opensonic.exe --help command does not work in a command prompt (it should output some stuff via printf, but it outputs nothing). On Linux it works fine. I'll try something else (maybe replace printf by allegro_message on Windows)
