- I've searched the faq's and postings, but still am looking for a clear
- explanation on how to use arrays of char strings in functions, especially when
- I want to have the function modify the array. I find I can't just pass the
- name of the string as a pointer as I do for single strings.
-
- One faq mentioned getting cdecl to convert sentences closer to usual English
- to C, but I haven't been able to find it on my usual searches thru WWW sites.
- Would anyone know of where to get such auto-programmers (while I'm asking, are
- there any programs that can translate VMS commands into unix -- not do it for
- you, but allow you to type a vms command, and have it suggest unix equivalents,
- more as a teacher rather than trying to stick with vms?)
-
- Thanks,
-
