#104128 - CHAR_BITS >= 8
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Donald Catto said:
A char is always one byte no matter what the platform is.

However the width of that char (byte) must be 8 bits or greater and can vary by platform (e.g., in limits.h for a common TI DSP, CHAR_BITS is defined to be 16 and on another DSP, CHAR_BITS is 32).
