I think itoa() would make a nice addition, as would snprintf (the BSD source from FreeBSD compiles without a hitch). itoa could probably be hacked up with snprintf, say something similar to the below. char *snprintf(int I) { char *blah; sprintf("%d",I)l return blah; } - alex - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
