What a great little learning project.
My suggestion is to work out a simpler version of what you are trying to do:
typedef struct {
unsigned short rec_type;
long data;
} type1;
typedef struct {
unsigned short rec_type;
char data[4];
} type2;
.

I realize that this is not a C forum, per se, but this is a Debian-specific
C question. I am trying to add support to the parted utility for CMS-formatted
disks on the s390 architecture. The source code is written in C, of course.
But I am not a C programmer. I can spell C, but that's about it.

I have not seen any good C(++) mailing lists, there were news groups but i do

I am trying to fumble through learning how to do some C programming.
In the book I am using, Beginning Linux Programming they are now trying
to use ncurses. I am getting the following errors when I try to compile
my source. I am compiling with this command:
