>>>Please don't make fun of me Tom, because I'm new at coding We've all been there once. Go buy yourself a book on C if you want to know how to code. If you ask a stupid question, you'll get a stupid answer. I realize you don't want to do that, or hear it, you simply want to turn to the list for the answer to your problem, but until you learn what you're doing, I'd advise finding someone to help you out. If you don't, you'll end up screwing up more often than you want to admit (everyone does it as a beginner), costing you MORE time, MORE work, blah blah blah.
As far as your question, 'twas answered already. However, one thing you need to remember is this... Most commands aren't exactly going to return (void), they'll return this arg or that arg.. That's what the args are for, they're ARGUMENTS. As I said, go buy yourself a book on c, learn it. You'll prevent making quite a few more mistakes than anything. Even better, find a coder that knows what they're doing to take your hand, guide you specifically for your mud, until you're comfortable with things in the code.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- TJW: Head tech, Dreamless Realms Mud Web: http://drealms.kyndig.com Snippets http://drealms.kyndig.com/snippets Telnet telnet://drealms.kyndig.com:9275 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2001 7:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: prototypes... Please don't make fun of me Tom, because I'm new at coding With that said.. I've noticed in function prototypes like: void do_function args((CHAR_DATA *ch, DO_FUN *do_fun, char *argument)); theres the args() thing.. can someone please explain to me what the point of it is? -thx -- ROM mailing list [email protected] http://www.rom.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rom
