:I have been porting some programs written to run on a SUN system to
:my atari with MWC v.2.  I have discovered that:
:
:long int temp1;
:int m;
:------
:m= anything....;
:temp1 += m;
:-------
:always leaves temp1 = 0;
:and ended up with the same results.  Is this an illegal thing to do??
:I assumed that types would be coersed into the correct thing.  This
:works fine on SUN, ULTRIX and UNIX.

	Perfectly legal.  'm' is automatically casted to a long before
being added to temp1.
