Walter,

I was wondering, will the character literals for char, wchar, and dchar datatypes get the same suffix treatment added to them as the string literals char[], wchar[], and dchar[] datatypes did with the "char[]"c, "wchar[]"w, and "dchar[]"d?

Thanks for your reply in advance.

Walter,

Opps! Replace "suffix" with "postfix"...darn it! I've always had this problem with right-hand-side, left-hand-side...it really caused me a lot of trouble during these quick marching practices I had to do back when I was in the U.S. Army. I had to slightly giggle my right hand to keep myself straight, man was that a chore! <g>

That should probably be done, too.

Walter, I could kiss you!

Thanks,

Actually, you got it right the first time - a suffix is something tacked on to the end.  A prefix is tacked on to the beginning.  And postfix.. I don't think it's a noun ;)

Jarrett,

Thanks, you're right. :) But please replace "giggle" with "wiggle"...;) Gee! I must have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed today.

Postfix is an SMTP server. A pretty good one, too.

I'll settle for a beer <g>.

The problem was my misunderstanding of how the dwarf line number thing worked.

I hear you, David.  I've always had the same problem.  In latter years it hasn't been so bad as when I was young.

My method of determining which hand has always been to flick the fingers.  That technique goes back to when I used to play a game (Canadian origin, I think) called Crokinole.  You had to flick round plastic (or wood) pieces across a plywood board.  I am right-handed... so that helped me determine that hand. :-)

Now and again, when I'm wasted, I still forget right and left. I guess we're all burdened with some handicap, whether it be physical or abstract.  :-P
