With the possible exception of environments for embedded development, the identifiers defined in the standard or any other library are not reserved words. If I don't include string.h, I am free to use the id 'memcpy' for my own purposes. Even if I do link with a library which defines memcpy, my definition overrides it. I'm not sure how you can construe this to mean that 'memcpy' is in any way "reserved". John Porter jporter@logicon.com
