 Thank you very much for the links.Fascinating stuff for someone who is not a
real programming Guru.I do wonder though what is so appealing about 'trailing
arrays' that they became so embedded in so much code, that the compiler
introduced this undefined behaviour deliberately to accomodate it.But oh well
it probably seemed like a good idea at the time.Thanks again.Greg Morse
