A term used in C++ and now part of ANSI C. Can be used in several
places: (1) placed before function symbol (declaration or
definition), can indicate function does not return a value; (2) used
as the sole parameter in the prototype of function declaration or
definition, indicates the function has no arguments/parameters. You
can also have void pointers (void *), which you might use to cast a
pointer to a defined type to one where the type you may not want to
be known or perhaps where the type is not important. Post this
question to the comp.lang.c or comp.lang.c++ newsgroup for an
exhaustive list of replies.

Are you perhaps wondering whether DOS can change its root filesystem
much like the one Unix has for resetting mount points?
