How 'bout using "gcc -w" for compilation. It SILENCES the complaint. (I'm
using gcc version 2.95.3-5.)

Hi
The useless compiler warning is this:
warning: decimal constant is so large that it is unsigned
I KNOW that it's unsigned, and it's supposed to be. It's the right hand
side of an initialization like this:
unsigned int x = 4294967294;
I'd just ignore it as a minor annoyance, but my boss insists that I find a
way to silence it (he doesn't know C himself).
Thank you very much in advance. Please reply to my email as I'm not
subscribed to the list... P.S. I already tried typecasting the large
constant as an unsigned int, as if to tell the compiler that I was well
aware it was too large to be signed, but that didn't help.
Sam
