As a side note, do you realize that this definition is invalid, in two ways? "main" cannot be declared "static". The whole reason we use the special name "main" is so that the startup code in the C run-time can link to it. If "main" is static, it won't be exposed in the object file, and the linker couldn't find it. It happens to work here because your C compiler knows about "main" and discards the "static", but that's not a good practice. Further, it's not valid to have "main" return "void". The standards require that it be declared as returning "int". Again, "void" happens to work in VC++, but there are architectures where it does not. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
