Nope. If sizeof char is not 1, then it's not C.
Today I Learned.
It sure was an education the first I wrote C code for
a machine where
1 == sizeof char == sizeof int == sizeof long == sizeof float == sizeof double
All were 32 bits.
Ah yes. In my case it was 16 bits, so sizeof long == 2 just for a
little variation.
Writing protocol code that dealt with the outside world via a serial
port was _painful_.
Amen, brother.
