Although I'm fluent in numerous other languages, the Mac has convinced me to crank up with C. I have MegaMax's C and, last night, was attempting to enter the "Arrows from C" demo program form page 21 of the latest (Aug) MacTutor, which was written in "Mac C". I've been stalled right near the beginning of the program where MegaMax complains about the following statement: Rect windowRect={40,4,336,508}; It gives numerous messages complaining about too many "}"s, not enough ";"s, etc. Can anyone explain what's going on, and perhaps any other "gotchas" I might expect?

Megamax likes all lower-case declarations. "Rect" is not the same as "rect". Mike McNally SMU mike@smu ...convex!smu!mike
