how do c++ programmers solve the problem of using c-only libs ? they: don't supporrt streams ... that's why i'm going to c, regreatabley. how can i make c-only libs support streams and stuff? i don't want to mix c++ files in with c fopen's and fclose, but ... s/but// with c's files ... i said that - i can't backspace, stupid kermit. example: clib wants a file desc. you an't use streams, do s/do/so you have to use fopen/fclose. in most o fyour code you use streams.
