C/C++ question.

I am not asking for code help as I am not a programmer at all.

When someone writes code under C/C++, they need to declare a few things.

File names will have to be one of these things under certain circumstances, am I correct?
File names such as configuration file names?

If so, I could possibly grep for a file declaration command within a file provided with the sourcecode and from the grep output I could determine what the filenames are called by the source code. That would be helpful as I try to polish my weak Linux administration skills.

In GWBasic, I used to write something like

open for input as 1 'filename.ext',0

Is nothing similar in the source code for Linux?

in C its normally..
*fp= fopen("file", "r");
or
fopen(fp,"file","r");

I think thats it, so yeah u can grep out file names.

Thank you, Ody.

What do you think - am I whacked for going about this in this fashion?
