From: Greg Skinner <Uc.Gds%mit-eecs@BRL-VGR.ARPA> I'd like to know how to do this. I have an array of keywords that I am parsing and would like if a certain keyword is parsed successfully a function at the same index as the keyword was at is called. Unfortunately, I do not know how to set up an array of pointers to functions and I wasn't able to find out from the C manual. -------
