[Dev-C++] One other minor problem

[Shane P. <ge...@my...>]

I also have one other minor problem.

Though I have looked through over 16 different manuals and tutorials, and have searched over 50 websites I cannot seem to find out the difference between

char* foo;
char *foo;
char* *foo;

From my own expirements (purposely generating compiler errors) it appears to me that the first two are identical.  They both seem to declare foo to be a variable of type char*.  The second seems to declare foo a pointer to type char*.  It also appears to me that type char* is actually a char[] of dynamic length because I can get string functions to work on it - just like on char[].

I have found no confirmation of any of this though.  I would appreciate any info anyone has about this.
