Eddy, Instead of a system-specific approach, you might want to take advantage of what the C language has to offer. For example, your multi-line issue. You realise that the C preprocessor/compiler will concatentate adjacent character string constants, forming one constant. So, you could code this up as: const char foo[] = "\"Escape\" chars make strings" " in 'C' code...\n" "...messy. But - at least, line breaks" " are not an issue.\n"; I don't have a nice way around the escapes needed for quotes though... - Dave Rivers - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
