Yes, thanks (it's the same information as in your C library reference) (actually it tells me that its used to convert clock() return value to seconds but I don#t wether clicks is cpu clock ticks or some other timer ticks) and you're right: that it is a constant and therefore probably not the CPU speed of the cpu the code is executed on could also be derived from it being written UPPERCASE. I'll try to use info more and the extra doc formats I just downloaded seem also to be useful (though they are just the offline version of their online pendants at gcc.gnu.org for example) - but a "quick" overview of gcc, gpp (or g++?), symify etc. in ONE file as djgpp doc. woudn't be bad. I could do that, but i must "learn" them first myself and that needs time I don't have much (but sometimes perhaps); also the one "offering" djgpp probably knows more and might be interested in that doc type himself (as it might be just THE doc needed for a comman-line dev.env djgpp is) - so you (not to be read in an "harsh" emphasis) Lars
