[comp.sys.cbm] C Power FILE vs FILE*

prindle@NADC.ARPA (Frank Prindle) (10/05/88)

What I was trying to say, before the bourne shell so rudely interrupted with
a list of my mail files, was that you can use "FILE *stream" in Power C (or
C Power) without any problems; no need to go change them all to "FILE stream".
Couldn't comment on this for Super C though.

If SUPER C pointers are the size of an int (Which it probally is) then
FILE is realy the same size as FILE *.
