The way C syntax handles pointers isn't very consistent to begin 
with imo.
It's strange & and * are prepended to pointer variables for 
example, while indexing is postpended. Leads to stuff like;
> (*array_of_pointers_to_arrays[2])[1]
vs
> array_of_pointers_to_arrays[2]*[1]

and

> (*array_of_pointers[1]).x'
vs
> 'array_of_pointers[1]*.x'

I think it'd still be quite C-like, same concepts samilar usage.
You're not using 'int foo[]' syntax anymore anyhow.
