On POSIX it's the same. It's not the same when only the C standard is concerned. There existed platforms with 9 bit chars (Unisys 1100). I don't know whether they are still in use. I doubt that any Haskell compiler will run on such a system. -- __("< Marcin Kowalczyk \__/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^^ http://qrnik.knm.org.pl/~qrczak/ _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
