\Hi, everybody,
\
\I'm also a University's student in need of help. I always see that people
\define the function 'main' in C-programs. Why is that? What should it return?
\Can't I use another name?
\
\Thanks in advance, I need your help desperately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To use `pipo' for `main' use:

	cc -Dpipo=main prog.c
:-)
