   Shouldn't that be:

	     int main( int argc, char **argv, int envc, char **environment)
					       ^^^
   This is how HighC and MSVC defines it.

No!  I got it right!  From ANSI, GCC, and every UNIX "C" that I have run across
that was recent enough to have bothered to implement it, the correct format is:


       int main( int argc, char **argv, char **environment )

(BTW: High C is explicitly MSC source compliant sooo ... )
