Leave this as setmode(), there is no reason to adopt Microsoft's convention.
If they want to make their compiler irrelevant to the C language community,
we have plenty of alternatives.

The only way to use portable C language code on Visual Studio are these two
defines; -D _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE -D _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE as noted in
Makefile.msc.

Vincent, quit messing around with standard API's and just declare these two
defines in the vcproj files, ok?
