It's sounds like you made, and are carrying on making, one of the classic
mistakes of software engineering: you're trying to write one language in
the style of another. It is possible to write C code as if it were
Pascal, but it's a painful process and it won't be pretty. It's far
better to use a language as it is rather than as you want it to be.
