Not only did your messages cross the Atlantic, they went on to cross the
continent.

However, it seems that there aren't any ISO compliant M2 compilers or ISO
standard libraries released in North America.  So, it's hard to refer to
a "Standard way" and expect others to be able to use it--particularly, when
you have everyone else at a disadvantage...you have a working compiler based
on a draft of the standard, right?.  Everyone else seems reluctant to release
an updated version of their compilers until the standard is adopted.

So, while I appreciate your examples...I'm both envious and peeved that I
can't test them.  *sigh*
