When I went to school to learn 'the basics' about C, I had a total of 3
instructors.  I got 3 DIFFERENT answers about using goto's from these
gentlemen.  1) Never use goto's; 2) they are part of the language, and
therefore can be used anywhere and anytime you want to; and 3) use them
judiciously, there is normally another way out of your problem than using a
goto.

I prefer to think in terms of using goto's as the third man told me - judicious
use.

Thanks for the tips.
