Hi! I've been browsing through C code that's been posted to the
net recently, and I've noticing something I don't understand. A
couple of times, I've seen something like this:
#define- FLARP whatever
complete with the hyphen immediately after the "#define". (I know I've
seen this in the NN patches that were just posted, and I think I noticed
this somewhere else on Usenet in the last week.)
What questions are:
(1) What does this mean (if anything)?
(2) What dialects is it legal in?
(3) Does this comply with the pANS?
Thanks in advance, as they say, and happy hacking!
