A quick glance at your code looks like it would properly create a linked list of two elements. The concept of the linked list is the same in C as it is in C++ (or any low level language). new and delete do not exist in C (as you point out). You will want to use malloc and free. malloc is part of a family of memory allocation functions that I suggest you read up on. CREATE is a macro used in CircleMUD which wraps the calloc() function. The 1 means you will allocate 1 * sizeof(type) bytes of memory. You would pass a number greater than 1 if you wanted to allocate a dynamic array. Since CircleMUD uses linked lists quite extensively, I would recommend familiarizing yourself with them as much as possible before attempting any significant code changes.
