(2) if a function returns a pointer to something, how long can you expect the pointer to be valid afterward.
you could do something like with the pointers to a table ... keep the pointers you have set in memory and update them ... with something like that, it might even be possible to write a garbage collector ... anyway, no function would be allowed to change these pointers, except with a certain function ...
cheers ... tim
