* This is the course library for Dokeos.

* All main course functions should be placed here.

* Many functions of this library deal with providing support for

* but not available in standard Dokeos).
*
* The implementation changed, initially a course was a real course
* if target_course_code was 0 , this was changed to NULL.
* There are probably some places left with the wrong code.
