Re: problem

Hi
thanks for the answer I knew it was somthing simple.
Another question:
fseek( fp, 0L, SEEK_END ) != 0

What does the 0L stand for? I know this function seeks to the end.

Should I bother somebody else with those questions since they are not
very gaming oriented and if where can I find a good C beginner
mailinglist?

Thanks again.
