Whenever I prototype a function in DJGPP, RHIDE tells gives me a
warning when I try to compile the program.
for example:

// my c program
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
newFunction(int i);	// prototype
main()
{
 int i = 5;
 clrscr();
 printf("blah blah");
 newFunction(i);
 return 0;
}
newFunction(int i)
{
 printf(" %d", i);
 return 0;
}

sorry about the bad example, i'm just learning c and had to think of
it off the top of my head.. anyhow, when i try to compile it under
rhide with djgppv2 it says "warning: newFunction() has no data type or
something or other".. but the program works fine if i remove the
prototype at the top.. is this normal?
