Those are declarations of pointers to functions. /* real function */ void dumb(int a) { return a; } ... /* here follows a declaration of func pointer */ int (*func_ptr)(int); int a; /* assign it */ func_ptr=dumb; /* use it */ a=func_ptr(123); Any good book about C should cover this. Look for OOP in C also, it's frequent use pointers to functions + structs to add classes to C. regards, Juanjo -- Desarrollo y sistemas: http://www.usebox.net/ Página Personal: http://www.usebox.net/jjm/
