If you've got variable types, then write out some kind of 'id' first, so that you know what kind of object is next in the file. Similarly for variable lengths, write out the length, then the data.

> My Question is why is there an extra gap of 3 in the memory? Because things like int or floats are more efficiently accessed (or even only possibly accessible) if they're on say a 4 byte boundary (or even 8 bytes for doubles on some machines).

4. As option 1, but edit the tasm.cfg file (or whatever it's called) which sets environment variables for LIB and INCLUDE. These are the default places it searches for things. Simply add the 3rd party directories and you can use them for anything without any further (or extra) effort.

> Data = new string[size]; Not only does this leak memory, it also loses all your previous input. You need a way of expanding your array of lines. Have you considered that std::vector would be ideal for this. Put the cin.ignore directly after any I/O functions which leave newlines behind.
