err, "dummy parameter" isn't a good term for that, and I didn't find a good one in my C reference :( put it this way: you can call "thefile" anything or even omit it since this is the function prototype and not the function declaration (This is just basic C; perhaps there is a better mailing list? hint hint hint ;))
