[net.lang.c] Backquote in C

jss@sftri.UUCP (J.S.Schwarz) (12/12/84)

A few days ago I posted an item suggesting that backquote(`) 
was an unused character in C.  Since then several people
have sent me mail "reminding" me that it is used in some
dialects of C for alternative forms of character constants.

Thanks to those who sent me mail.
