Okay so now I'm almost thinking that the reason your code didn't work when I tried it was because I think I might have compiled the wrong file. Because as i try to compile it now I'm getting errors and I didn't even change anything. It's giving me this error message:
Code:
test2.c: In function ākbd_rdā:
test2.c:28: error: āfd_setā undeclared (first use in this function)
test2.c:28: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
test2.c:28: error: for each function it appears in.)
test2.c:28: error: expected ā;ā before āset_readā

test2.c:32: warning: unused variable ātv_tmoutā
test2.c: In function āmainā:
test2.c:50: warning: implicit declaration of function āfilenoā

Some of these confuse me because it seems that it is saying that certain things are undeclared right where they are being declared, if that makes sense. Thanks for the help by the way guys, I really appreciate it. It seems like a lot of this is over my head as of right now. I'll need more than one quarter of class to fully understand what's going on.
