Hello folks,
I am having a really weird problem. Under windows XP, a simple C
program designed to write to a file has been adding EXTRA characters
to the output file.
First I used "fwrite", to write, lets say, 1000 bytes in binary. The
output contained 1022 bytes, even though fwrite told me (returned)
that it only wrote 1000 bytes.
After much debugging, I saw that every time there was a "0x0A" byte to
be written, a "0x0D" was automatically appended! Thus adding extra
bytes to the file. What is going on?
I tried a simple loop with fputc instead of fwrite, and the behavior
was the exact same.
Anyone experienced this sort of thing before?
Thanks,
--Shafik

'\n' is guaranteed to be a single character in standard C, but it is
not a single character in your operating system's text format, so
fputc e.a. need to translate it at runtime. To disable this, don't
open the file in text mode, open the file in binary mode using the
second argument of fopen(). See also < http://c-faq.com/stdio/
fopenbinary.htm l>.

From doing weird alignment things, to making it so that so long as

I'm trying to design an HTML page that can edit itself. In essence, it's
just like a Wiki page, but my own very simple version. It's a page full
of plain old HTML content, and then at the bottom, there's an "Edit"
link. So the page itself looks something like this:

<!-- TEXT STARTS HERE -->
<H1>Hello World!</H1>

Hi all,
we're currently developing an application in the .NET environment that
needs to access a DLL implemented in Fortran. There is one procedure
with about 17 parameters, most of them arrays. After some trial and
error experiments, we've found out that
a) the parameters must be ordered by type, i.e. we cannot mix double,
integers and Strings (char-Arrays) - instead, we first need to put
all the float-Arrays and Int32-Arrays, and...

I'm porting a program a friend wrote in C over to Python and I've run
into a little hang-up. The C program writes characters out to a file.
I'm 99% sure that a conversion is going on here as well. I know for a
fact that it's taking a number and turning it into a character.
So what kind of call can I make to do it in Python?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
