Well,  since I don't have my compiler open for a syntax check,  I can't say
guarantee it,  but the following should do what you are asking:

	char * ptr = "This is a test.";
	char   var;

	var = *ptr;

Now,  "var" will have the value 'T' (the first letter of the string pointed
to by the character pointer)...
