 MS> Hi Paul (& Frank),
 
 FA> OOP is still C , it's just more object oriented :)
 
 PW> Yeah, but if I start using classes and objects all over the
 PW> place and then start asking about them in HERE...  <:-\

 MS> True, we'll flame you.  :) OTOH, it's quite possible to do OOP
 MS> without C++; an OOP oriented language like C++ just keeps things
 MS> less cluttered by hiding the details.
Yeah,but those derived structures are driving me bananas.;-) 
  
 PW> I was taught to "hate" global variables...  Come to think of it
 PW> -- why
 FA> I think it's just that, having the variables declared near the
 FA> procedure using them, makes the code more readable.
 MS> Agreed, although comments can help, too.  :)
Oh alright, if you want to make it easy for everyone ;-)
 
 
 PW> Damn.  What's ISO's address?  I'll write to them and tell them
 PW> to put this heapwalk() function (and the rest of the
 PW> heap-related functions of
 FA> :-)
 MS> Interesting...  I wonder what it'd do on my Amiga...  :) I've seen
 MS> PC programmers talking about "the heap" and I guess it's where
 MS> malloc() gets its memory, but the rest is a mystery.  Memory
 MS> allocation is more anarchic over here. :)
It would still have to return handles of blocks to the program's RTL ?
Does the Amiga "run" or "emulate" DOS ? (or neither ?)
 
  PW> Righto.  So you want a BMW and I want a 10Mbit link to the US...
 PW> That's a PRIVATE link, mind you ;)
 MS> That's probably faster than accessing mmy old 80M Quantum.  :)
Let's see 10Mbit/8 = 1.25Mbytes.
That's what i call good close racing. :-) 
Mind you the link will probably carry a handicap of a start/stop bit. :)
