This one bit me today

I could never get used to the difference between = and ==, so I use "#define
EQ ==" (and "#define NE !=" for symmetry) as part of my standard defines at
the start of every program.  While the lexical distinction remains, it is now
reflected more thoroughly by the difference between punctuation and
alphabetical characters.
