It would be nice to have all tempalte container classes separated in different headers.

Concrete implementation of Core makes a bit difficult using NTL with other toolkits.
And it is completly not required to use all things from Core if I just want to use NTL Vector and Array.
For now that is imposible becouse Vcont.h even dont have #pragma once.
Core would be much better with STL,Bost, Agg idea of separating algorithms into separate and independant code.

This is just Idea after Gdiplus , Core type colissions ...
I connt use

use namespace Gdiplus;
use namespace Upp;

I have to type by hand all things from one of library ie.

using namespace Upp;
using Gdiplus::Pen;
typedef Gdiplus::Color Color_;
very long list follows.....

It is just Idea .. (not complaining)

Years ago, I have separated NTL from U++ as standalone library. Interest was close to zero.

Also, there is fragile problem with U++ maps - they require moveable keys. With U++, it is simple. In fact, most existing std::string as well as CString implementations are moveable too, but you cannot take it granted...
