i am not sure, but, tell me 'c strings' is a problem due to internal function handling with static \0 eof while 'c strings' can store null bytes no ? ( tell me if this is true or not plz ) then if, its up to the coding buddies to self code its so simple: you have always static length strings simply, u conunt and know the length of every msg used, and so u can separate right isnt it so simple ? > I urge you to learn one of these other languages, and use it. i cant read others docs it seems buddy, it budds mee, its like the web docs about shell scripting, as you i and i wrote on our pages, its very invalid and so i cant learn a new language sorry > Bash is a shell, not a full general-purpose programming language.
