Put yourself back in the position of using a mysterious thing called a 'compiler' for the first time. I say that those options are intimidating. As are the hundred of pointless warnings that will be generated that will likely swamp any actual problems. Such as the one generated here from a 64-bit compiler: char *s; int len; .... len = strlen(s); because you are converting from size_t down to int. (And don't say we should be obliged to use 64-bit counts for string lengths in all circumstances.) >> Next problem is how to arrange for that lot to be given to the compiler >> automatically, without having to type them in every time. > > Do you seriously think that's a problem? You're a C programmer, right? Yes I can do it (by sticking them all on a single long line in a batch file in this case). But we're talking about beginners (it might even be worse for an experience programmer new to C). > How hard could it be to write a C program to generate the makefile for > you? And then we really are learning a different language. -- Bartc
