  15. <snip>
  16.    This is news to me, but it seems that section 6.2.1.5 of the standard
  17.    says that the lowest integer type is an int. If I am going to buy these
  18.    things I suppose I ought to read them.
  19.  
  20. So are chars and shorts not `integer types'? Or are they higher than int?
  21.  
  22. <snip>
  23.    are ( I think ) implementation-defined if the short is signed.
  24.  
  25. In which version of C is short unsigned?
  26.
