There's a mismatch here: scanf("%d", ...) expects a pointer to int,
while &nnote is a pointer to a short. Normally, an int occupies more
bytes in memory than a short (typically sizeof(int) == 4 on 32bit
platforms, and sizeof(int) == 8 on 64bit platforms; while typically
sizeof(short) == 2).

I think short and int stay the same on both 32 and 64 bit platforms, while it's only long that gets bumped to 8 bytes. At least that seems to be what happens on FreeBSD amd64.

No... you're only safe using int32, int64, etc. Just for grins try compiling a program like this:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
   printf("%d\n", sizeof(int));
   return 0;
}
