Thanks for clearing all of that up for me.

I've had a look, and CC65 is doing excellent code.
If I get far enough in this little project, I would like
to actually have it fit in a 16k cartridge for the 64.
So I'm trying to balance doing the project completly in
C and still have as much space available as possible.
So in the end I may or may not need to trim undeeded
parts of libs and structs. I'm still learning so I don't
even know if that will be necessary. I know I can 
compact more with strait asm, but this is all about
learning C for me. And having an actuall product at
the end makes it more fun. 
Thanks for all the help so far, I am  progressing
very quickly now.
