:> : :> :-Alfred :> :> 'nil' ? 'nil' is the designation for an ascii 0, not a pointer. :> Please use 'null' or 'NULL' -- for example, look at the gettimeofday :> man page. 'nil' has nothing to do with pointers. : :More correctly, 'nul' or 'NUL' are ASCII character 0. 'nil' is a pascal phrase :that should *not* find its way into the general UNIX lexicon. : :-- : "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?" : :Wes Peters Softweyr LLC :wes@softweyr.com http://softweyr.com/ Ah, indeed! nul/NUL == ascii. 'nil' should removed from our vocabulary. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
