I'll do the alignment stuff. An util that actually generates the initializer - as outlined in the previous posting - would be great though. Pointers to nested structs and function pointers as struct items are already in CVS (at least, when returned from the external C lib) - I'll update the docs/pmc/struct.pod tommorrow, including nested structures. > uri leo
