why p->member ?

[Martin Neitzel]

btw, the debugger "dbx" will dereference a structure pointer p
automatically in an expression like "p.a"

And just another remark regarding the operator "->":

I for one would enjoy a corresponding assignment augmentation
for it:  "node ->= next".  (But then, I like things like APL,
you know...)
