I don't think so, ask google for LLP64 and click the second link (blogs), you will like it :-) Basically, they choose LLP64 because they have declared some structures as LONG (eg: in bitmaps) instead of making them int32 ! I didn't know that they were losers to the point of not understanding a typedef ! This may explain why they stopped supporting alpha long ago... > LP64 seems to be by far the most common in the unix world. it seems so, but I'd be interested in counter-examples too. > -miles > -- > "1971 pickup truck; will trade for guns" Willy
