Yeah, well, in a perfect world, nothing would use it. However, there's a lot of legacy code out there, and the fact is some of it does still use varargs. So, while I would strongly discourage the use of obsolete items like varargs and such, the fact remains, some code is still written to use them, and if it means that I can compile and use said programs on my machine with minimal effort, then I will. -Larry -- Larry Daffner | Linux: Unleash the workstation in your PC!
