I gave up trying to read this crap.  It looks like it was cribbed from a 
language using based 1 arrays, and with "goto" as the only control 
statement and variable-names imported from 1966-era BASIC.  The 
formating and indention are horrible; you posted it with strings broken 
across line-breaks.  Using C99 or C++ style comments is a terrible idea 
for posted code, since comments frequently are broken by the posting or 
receiving software.  It is an even worse idea when used to comment out 
code.

Trying writing this in a readable form. Drop the idea of based-1 arrays, 
which will only confused.  When you have this code in something close to 
idiomatic C, try reposting.
