Microsoft Visual SourceSafe is a file-level version control system that permits many types of organizations to work on several project versions at the same time. This capability is particularly beneficial in a software development environment, where it is used in maintaining parallel code versions. However, the product can also be used to maintain files for any other type of team. Visual SourceSafe supports cross-platform development by allowing collaborative editing and sharing of data. It is designed to handle the tracking and portability issues involved in maintaining one source control base, for example, a software code base, across multiple operating systems. For developers, Visual SourceSafe accommodates reusable or object-oriented code. It makes it easier for you to track the applications that use particular code modules. 1, record 1, English, - Microsoft%20Visual%20SourceSafe

Microsoft Visual SourceSafe est un système de contrôle de version au niveau du fichier qui autorise de nombreux types d'organisation à travailler simultanément sur plusieurs versions d'un projet. Cette fonction est particulièrement utile dans un environnement de développement de logiciel, où elle permet de conserver des versions de code parallèles. Toutefois, ce produit peut également être utilisé pour gérer les fichiers de tout autre type d'équipe. Visual SourceSafe prend en charge le développement multiplateforme en autorisant l'édition collaborative et en partageant des données. Il est destiné à gérer les problèmes de suivi et de portabilité impliqués dans la maintenance d'une base de contrôle de code source (par exemple, une base de code de logiciel) entre plusieurs systèmes d'exploitation. Pour les développeurs, Visual SourceSafe prend en charge le code réutilisable ou orienté objet. Cela facilite le suivi des applications qui utilisent des modules de code particuliers. 1, record 1, French, - Microsoft%20Visual%20SourceSafe

An active parallel turn done with both legs to allow the skier to ride an edged and tracking ski. Type of turn that offers the easiest way to experience the pure carving action of a ski. 2, record 2, English, - railroad%20turn
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The basic stance in which railroad turns are done puts both skis on their inside edge. Because your feet are wider than your hips, angulation is "pre-set" on both legs. You can turn on either ski by simply weighing or pressuring it, and bending it into reverse camber. As the ski is on edge when the pressure is applied, it will begin carving. 1, record 2, English, - railroad%20turn
