Yes, it helps Larry.

But, for instance, I've seen "VOID" coded in examples through the years and always just sloughed it off as 'just C code that I needn't concern myself with'. Now, to exploit Intellisense, I have to concern myself with that "stuff".

I have no idea what "VOID" actually means and why I would use it. Something that describes whats valid and what it describes (means) is what I hope to find in the docs.

Thanks
