Could/would someone out there please tell me what the addition of a 'b' parameter
to the mode means in the context of a fopen() call in Lattice C?  I have Aztec
C and it does not mention this at all.  Neither does my K&R - unless I missed
it somehow.

If the above is less than clear, maybe an example will help.

     fopen(temp, "wb");





                           Thank you,
                                      Jim Pritchett
