Steve, I must take exception to your comment about Lint. If you program with Lattice C, I'd agree with you. However, Manx C does not yet support prototypes, and will let you get away with murder in your code – Manx assumes you know what you're doing, oftentimes to your determent. My approach with Lint under Manx C is to go full speed ahead coding, until I've detected a run-time bug. If a +ick perusal of the source code oesn't reveal the problem, I use lint. However, I also do some development under Lattice C. The benefits of using Lint are greatly diminished with Lattice, because their C supports prototypes and is much more informative about possible source code problems. Dave
