Quite off-topic, but still worth mentioning ;-) Why people refer to '\0' as ``NUL'' but not ``NULL'' ?? NUL is a bogus "device" thingy under Billy's early OSes. While there is such thing as ``nil'', NUL seems like something that does not quite belong to UNIX world... Fascinating: quite a few our manpages make use of ``NUL'' though...
