rc.35 - ArgusGetIndicatorString() still incomplete

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Philipp,
OK, working on these, I have them so that the indicator
field conforms to the documentation, and I've set the precision
of the fields to 3.  Time is still sensitive to the precision indicator.
I'll revert all the floating fields to be sensitive to the precision  
flag,
and make the default 3, but that will come later this week.

Carter
