GNU/GCC 3.3.6 16bits integer       type is suitable for 16/32bits machines like the ATARI ST, but GNU/GCC       4.2 and later don't have this 16bits int type. This is a cruel lack =(              Regards,              --        François LE COAT       Author of Eureka 2.12 (2D Graph Describer, 3D Modeller)       http://eureka.atari.org/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
