none of the above because of shitty naming convention with underscores

thats perfectly good C style, but putting "ptr" in the name is certainly not.

C is not java, do not fucking use CamelToe in C.

(2) char *string_ptr;

What is the right way to create two pointers to chars?
1. char* one, two
2. char *one, *two

That settles with which part the asterisk should go.
Also I agree with >>13

1) char* ptr; might not work with all compilers.
either char * ptr; or char *ptr;
2) K&R rocks, that along with the c99 standard is all you need.
3) ptr is nice, do not use underscores and no shitty names like ``text'' or ``string''. Try buf, buffer, p, s, ptr, bufptr, etc.

Java is high level.
What is your definition of high-level?

Oh I see, you didn't mean it wasn't high level.

I just meant that assuming I must have been talking about Java is so fail.

Java is a mid-level language at best. To be a high level language it'd need more comfortable features such as built-in lists and dictionaries (with value syntax), dynamic typing or at least type inference, etc., and/or better abstractions such as first-class functions, continuations, etc.
