   This is news to me, but it seems that section 6.2.1.5 of the standard
   says that the lowest integer type is an int. If I am going to buy these
   things I suppose I ought to read them.

So are chars and shorts not `integer types'? Or are they higher than int?

   are ( I think ) implementation-defined if the short is signed.

In which version of C is short unsigned?
