null_pointer: auto means automatically decide to put it in a register or on the stack. The register keyword means put it in a register, but it doesn''t work with the new compilers. And the stack size can be changed in windows.
Also with memory management it gets more complicated if you go down to a lower level, since the compiler does some optimizations on what you tell it to do.
For a good time hit Alt-F4! Go ahead try it, all the cool people are doing it.

My C book states that the register keyword simply _tries_ to put the variable in a CPU register. Right or wrong?

HOWEVER - if you use the "static" keyword in your function prototype the variables are kept in memory and the same values are used if the function is called again, right gurus?
Is there any equivalent of the static directive in Pascal (Delphi)?
I don’t think there is one, but I’m just checking to make sure, because a static directive could be very useful…
