Consider the following fragment of code: x = y + z; /* comment more comment */ #define a b Is this a legal #define? I think no, because the comment is replaced by a single space, so the "#" is preceded by more than whitespace -- it is preceded by "x = y + z;" on the same line. If my processor encounters and obeys such an illegal #define, is it required to produce a warning message, or may it obey silently? -- Norman Diamond, Sony Corporation (diamond@ws.sony.junet) The above opinions are inherited by your machine's init process (pid 1), after being disowned and orphaned.
