+1 for unit from me too.
"void" in C means either that the function accepts or returns *no*
value -- clearly not the case here -- or that the type of the object
pointed to by a pointer is unspecified. This is a pretty different
semantics from the value Jonathan called "V" above -- so "void" should
be, er, avoided :)
