What is the problem with '&', Jason ?
You can use '&' with structs too.

	#include <stdio.h>

	struct Test
	{
		char *one, *two, *three;
	};

	void fun(Test &x)
	{
		puts(x.one);
		puts(x.two);
		x.three = "me";
	}

	int main()
	{
		Test s;
		s.one = "This works";
		s.two = "for";
		fun(s);
		puts(s.three);
		return 0;
	}
