BSD/OS 4.2, but it's obsolete and thus easily ignored. But isn't that the main point of having fseeko and ftello in gnulib? If not, then there doesn't seem to be any reason for having the messy code in fseeko that grubs around in the FILE structure so as to be able to call lseek; just call the native fseek[o] and be done with it. -Larry Jones Life's a lot more fun when you're not responsible for your actions. -- Calvin
