Yes....but the @#$%^ C compiler on HP-UX supports it!


Thanks HP ... for abandoning the C/iX users!


It's been a *VERY* bad day for me, computer-wise, and I feel I should
be congratulated for using a mild word like "abandoning", instead of
what I typed the first 2 or 3 times.

[I've discovered the hard way that 9 GB drives do *NOT* seem to work
correctly on MPE/iX 5.5 PowerPatch 1 ... then why did they add
them to the @#$%^&@#$%^& IODFAULT.PUB.SYS file?]
