extern problem

[Whipping Boy]

extern ifstream script;

Whenever I compile, it gives me:
extern.h:1: syntax error before `;'

You do have to have

#include <stream>

before that (and since this is line one according to the error output, I know you don't http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/smile.gif)

Yeah, I realized that I had forgotten to put that in right when I went to bed this morning--but I was too comfortable to get up and change it.

Boy, do I feel like an idiot now.
