/*
* stack.h
*
* Expandable pointer stack for arbitrary void* data.
*
* The L_Stack is an array of void * ptrs, onto which arbitrary
* objects can be stored. At any time, the number of
* stored objects is stack->n. The object at the bottom
* of the stack is at array[0]; the object at the top of
* the stack is at array[n-1]. New objects are added
* to the top of the stack, at the first available location,
* which is array[n]. Objects are removed from the top of the
* stack. When an attempt is made to remove an object from an
* empty stack, the result is null. When the stack becomes
* filled, so that n = nalloc, the size is doubled.
*
* The auxiliary stack can be used to store and remove
* objects for re-use. It must be created by a separate
* call to pstackCreate(). [Just imagine the chaos if
* pstackCreate() created the auxiliary stack!]
* pstackDestroy() checks for the auxiliary stack and removes it.
