C does not do what you need. You need to do one of two things: 1. Find a library that does this for you, and control it at a high level, letting it handle the low level details. 2. Write a library or module that makes assembler calls to do what you need. Essentially, you're writing the library in my first suggestion. -- John Gaughan http://www.johngaughan.net/
