Thanks, Dave. That was even better than "believe me 'cause I'm always right".
:-) He probably was right.

Sounds pretty good. Does it support conformant arrays? Can you execute
procedure and function pointers? If so, it sounds like something really
very powerful and supportive of good programming style (Pascal is the second,
except for some nasty oversights and glitches, but not the first).

I'm currently trying to get the time to learn C (along with my at-work
project to be done, and reading IM parts I..n).
