Well, I think that maybe you will have pointers to stuff that isn't text
someday. Besides, I think text should be unsigned. Period. I hate this
default to signed characters in most new compilers. Maybe they don't like it
either. Not all ambiguous pointers are APTR – look at the UserData field in
the Window struct, for example. (Now, that seems to me like it should have
been APTR. Oh well…) sdb
