In reference to C programming style, I'd like to point out that it might be good practice (if you have a compiler such as Borlands that does C and C++) to compile even your straight C programs as C++; this will enforce prototyping for you and make sure (mostly sure) that you are calling your functions correctly. It's worth it just for removing those nagging doubts as to whether you _did_ prototype everything. Let the compiler do the work, I say. -- "The possessed's mad speech is the higher wisdom of the world, since it is human...Why have we not yet acquired this insight in relation to the world of the free will? Because outwardly we are the masters of madness, because the insane are violated by us, and we hinder them from living according to their ethical laws...Now we must endeavor to overcome the dead point in our realtionship to insanity." --Wieland Herzfelde, 1914
