That's interesting, what machines are you using? The pentium chips all
use 32 bit ints, and I am fairly certain powerPC does as well. On the
pentium, under linux, long int and int are the same.

Because the data type "bool" doesn't exist in C?
Why not make normal integers out of your booleans and then modifying
your code accordingly (so, set these ints to 0 or 1 as you can't set
'em to TRUE or FALSE)?
all machines to execute this software is 32 bits long and the int is a
16 bit integer. using int to calculate things adds un-necessary cpu
time to AND it with 0000ffff in order to get the int value before it
checks to see if it's zero. it's much faster using long instead of
int, that's why i'll be using long for the most part.

the problem is having boolean values inside a structure, the
