According to The African Chief:

...

For the other type declarations, I suggest you use the more modern GPC integer types (as invented some months ago), rather than the old style __modifiers__. (Also for real types.)

Frankly, I am totally lost as far as that is concerned. Is there any authoritative list of all the numerical types?

It's in the GPC info documentation, section "Integer types", and there is also an Info node for each type.

Hope this helps,

Peter
