I just tried the following code on my laser C compiler.
char pattern[] = "fred";

As a global declaration it worked fine.
As a local declaration (in main) it wouldn't compile unless I put the
word "static" in front of it.  Then it worked fine.
When declared as a static, of course it worked correctly as a global or
a local.  Apparently that is the way to do it as was said in a previous
message.

	Case Closed.
