I think our poor USENET is getting a bit (pardon the word) screwed. What better to do at 2:00 a.m. then comment on 16/32 bit ints again. Say, you know it is very easy for us to include a check for this problem. If you have a program which MUST be compiled with 32-bit ints, you can put a one-line'r test'n fail (run-time) for 16-bit ints. That way, nobody will 'accidently' compile your source w/ the wrong option. if (!(int)(0xFFFF+1)) { puts("FAIL!");exit(9999);} -Matt Look ma, no hands
