Difficult string handling is the only thing which pisses me off about C. I'll bet that if you totaled up all of the bugs and crashes in Windows software throughout history, the majority of them could be traced back to string-related things like trashed pointers and strings which aren't bounds-checked. If C had been built with proper native string handling from the beginning, all our jobs would be a lot easier.

Yeah, i have always maintained that C was but a mildly structured variant of assembly :)
