Yes. >How can I code constant strings into my program and make them less vulnerable >to changes? Well, I'd first review whether the effort is worth it. If so, you have a few options: * Write a program to scan you source and look for string literals and change them to be somethink else, as well as call a myprintf which re-establishes them. * Or at least put them all into one header or .c that you convert. * Build your strings one character at a time. * Put your messages in an external file. * Etc. Some of these suggestions are more practical than others.
