For example: I remember something about switching declaration reading direction when you hit a bracket; but why bother once you have cdecl? cdecl> declare f as array of pointer to function returning pointer to function returning int int (*(*f[])())() It is not clear to me how to apply your rule. It doesn't matter though, it is gotten to the point where I can only store ptrs to ptrs to information in my ever shrinking brain! To the people who pointed out the cdecl port, I did look in /usr/ports/devel but missed cdecl somehow.
