Message-ID: <2486@scolex.sco.COM> Date: 27 Mar 89 17:59:42 GMT Organization: The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. Lines: 14 I noticed the other day that the distance between shared library functions is 6 bytes. The is at an offset less than the base of the Shared Library pointer. I would like to know, why 6 bytes? 4 of these bytes should be the pointer itself, but what are the other 2? flags? thanks much brian moffet -- Brian Moffet {uunet,decvax!microsoft,ucscc}!sco!brianm -or- ...sco!alar!brian "I was everything you wanted me to be.
