It seems that long int on 32 bit is 4 bytes on my 32 bit machines with gcc and on my 64 bit machine is 8 bytes.
There is no standard on long int, is there? #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("Size of int is %ld\n",sizeof(long int)); return 0; } brian -- Brian Lavender http://www.brie.com/brian/ "There are two ways of constructing a software design.
