    Code:
    struct node {
           char data[128];
           struct node *ptr;
    };
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
    3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
    cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge

    A small note. If in case you need to typedef that struct, you do something like:
    Code:
    typedef struct node nodeTag {
           char data[128];
           struct nodeTag *ptr;
    } node;
    
    //example
    node myNode;
