Hi,

Don't know what you want to say with this.  "unsigned char" and "signed 
char" are perfectly defined.  Only "char" has the problem of platform 
dependend signedness.

And just for completeness (because sometimes people are mislead by the 
above): this _only_ is true for "char".  "short", "int" and "long" are 
signed by definition.


Ciao,
Michael.
