/*
I'm using DJGPP (the DOS version of the C compiler GCC).
How do I initialize a union?
*/

typedef union Boxers
{
  short left, right;
} Boxers;

typedef union Foo
{
  void *data;
  Boxers trunks;
} Foo;

Foo bar;

How do I set up a declaration that defines an initial value for
bar.data or bar.trunks?
