Pointer variable storage

Hello

Perhaps this is really a question for Fred, but maybe someone else knows: Is the pointer storage a signed or unsigned variable?

I have had some code that worked under Windows however when I ported to Linux I ran into a problem when checking for allocated memory by seeing if the value of ...

Re: PureBasic 4.60 RC 2
