  Just lazy, actually. Besides, according to ANSI/ISO, what I used is 
equivalent to...
int main(void)
...(assuming I didn't include operand definitions between the function 
definition and the following body, e.g...
main()
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
        ...
}
...which is the same as...
int main(int argc, char *argv[])

  In the example, there is room for only 3 elements in the my_data array. To 
make it larger, declare my_data as a pointer, then allocate each element 
using realloc(). Alternatively, you could make it a linked list instead of an 
array.
  I'll provide code examples and answer the rest of your questions in a day 
or so - right now I'm tired from a crash week.
