Python + Borland - msvcrt = grr.

    Of course you can. In this situation, though, I believe you'd want
Project->Options->Compiler->Selected Warnings. The 'tasm' page is, I
believe, just for assembler settings for when you're writing directly in
assembler.

    But, just ignoring the warnings is not a good idea until you're sure
they're ignorable. Before I went an disabled every warning that was
complaining, I posted some questions to the appropriate newsgroups if I
didn't understand why the warning was given -- why? So I could understand
why the warning was given, and then decide that it is something which is
just a minor nuisance and best to be ignored. *then* (read: now) I turned
off the warning. :)
