It just happens to be the version I have. (In my defence, I didn't

specific questions about it, let me know.

Check the example, probably right near page 53, of the "put_rec" function
which tries to write an array to disk (using sizeof(rec) to obtain
the size of an array argument...).

I believe that in the 2nd edition, the test is
if(len <> 1)

(Note: I just checked that it is page 53 in the third edition. I last
looked at that, I think, in 1995 or so. I have no idea why I remember
this and can only find my car keys about one day in two.)
