Sorry, I meant -ansi is the same as -std=c89: From gcc(1): c89 iso9899:1990 ISO C90 (same as -ansi). And again, you missed what I said about declarations not at the top. This is why we use -ansi -pedantic-errors: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]$ gcc -std=c99 foo.c [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]$ gcc -std=c99 -pedantic-errors foo.c [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]$ gcc -ansi -pedantic-errors foo.c foo.c: In function 'main': foo.c:9: error: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]$ It's the ONLY combination that seems to catch that error. -- Phil Dibowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] Open Source software and tech docs Insanity Palace of Metallica http://www.phildev.net/ http://www.ipom.com/ "Never write it in C if you can do it in 'awk'; Never do it in 'awk' if 'sed' can handle it; Never use 'sed' when 'tr' can do the job; Never invoke 'tr' when 'cat' is sufficient; Avoid using 'cat' whenever possible" -- Taylor's Laws of Programming
