my first question is this.  i have a copy of go32 1.08
if i accidentally type "go32 file.c" or any non-gcc executable
file it locks my computer up.  i understnad why this happens i am
just wondering if in any of the newer version it terminates instead
of crashing.

second guestion.  when writing c++ code, i have to make main an int not
a void and return needs a value, what is the reason behind this??
from what i remember about my c++ class i had god knows how long ago
we could do this:

void main()
{
   program lines
   return;
}

but when i tried this with djgpp it forced me to do it this way:

int main()
{
   program lines
   return 0;
}

just curious as to why this is.  thanks.
