Can someone tell me where (if anywhere) I might be able to get a copy of the ANSI C standard via FTP? Thanks. -- Michael R. Johnston / mikej@marob.masa.com System Administrator Temporary Email: Lilink Public Xenix \ mikej@marob

Thanks. You can't. It is not available in machine-readable form. The copyright holder, ANSI, relies on sales of printed standards to support its work, and accordingly does not make standards available in easily-copied forms. (There have recently been some doubts raised about the copyright situation, though, so this might change in future.) (Steve, a note about this in the FAQ list might be a good idea.) -- The 486 is to a modern CPU as a Jules | Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology Verne reprint is to a modern SF novel. | henry@zoo.toronto.edu utzoo!henry
