Hey guys. Everyone was complaining about not having any traffic on this
list, so here's something to get you thinking over the long weekend.

 I am running my mud on WolfPaw and everything compiles perfect. No error=
s,
 no warnings. All good. I am thinking about moving where my mud is hosted
 though. The new server is running Fedora Core 5 with GCC 4.1.1 and I get=
 an
 interesting compliation warning:

 gcc -c -Wall -g3  comm.c
 comm.c: In function =E2=80=98init_descriptor=E2=80=99:
 comm.c:986: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of
 =E2=80=98getsockname=E2=80=99 differ in signedness
 comm.c:987: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of =E2=80=98a=
ccept=E2=80=99
 differ in signedness
 comm.c:1010: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of
 =E2=80=98getpeername=E2=80=99 differ in signedness

 It's a clean make, so I know it's getting all the Fedora header files wi=
th
 nothing left over from the WolfPaw build. I went ahead and tried to run =
it
 to see what it would do, but as I expected (since the warning is in the
 descriptor stuff) it crashed as soon as I tried to log in.

 Also, just on a side note. Any idea how to get the funny aE characters t=
hat
 show un instead of quotes to show as quotes?

 example: =E2=80=98accept=E2=80=99 should be `accept'

 Thanks!
