As I recall the specification of the void type, it generally means, at least in a function definition, like void foo(), etc. that NO VALUE is returned at all, or at least nothing meaningful. I'm not sure about void *. But if manx uses it as a generic type, it MAY not be portable. Also, my C book tells me that any type may be cast to void, but that void may not be cast to anything. I don't know if this also applies to void *, but it seems possible. Maybe someone out there knows the official K&R position on this. I kind of like thinking of an untyped area of memory as UBYTE * or something like that, in that it really implies no special meaning to that area (unlike char, int, float, etc.); this is just a personal pref. -Dave Haynie
