I am a soon to be convert from Turbo Pascal to Turbo C (at least I'll make
the attempt to add C to my toolset). I was wondering if there is an Equivalent
to a Packed array of chars in C other than a char array (char[20]). I want
to read in some files that I wrote w/ pascal using records that used PAC.
Obviously the "null terminated string" is not an exact match. I was considerin
emulating what I wan't by creating structures of single chars, but I was rathe
hoping for an easier solution.

Any ideas?
