Neither has the "extern" keyword in front of it, and I'd like each to be local to its own module (soon almost all of my modules will need such a pointer, and I'd like to avoid naming confusion). When I link the program blink barfs on a "symbol redefined" error. Should this be happening? Thanks -- Wade.
