why would they do that? > Just a warning: it's good to turn it on, but there are cases where it > will lead to an error that is not an error (depending on how you > define error). of course the type signature is based on the c type, not the machine type. in the case of all supported architechtures, long and int produce the same code. so, for example, -T will be unhappy if you say long and mean int, program won't crash. but neither will it be portable. long is now a vestigial type. - erik
