To me (and maybe not to everyone else) the C definitions and structures
are far easier to read and understand.  RPG just doesn't do pointers
nicely.  The RPG version took a lot of code to do what C did in a few
lines.  I just always seem to trip over the RPG code while C makes it look
easy.

Again this is how things are *to me*.  YEMBD (Your Experience May Be
Different).
