Subject: [9fans] Design choice is C preprocessor
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2001 18:12:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200104232212.f3NMCpq12483@honti.mit.edu> (raw)


A historical question: What were reasons for #include to stand alone
on a line? It seems that allowing #include "filename" anywhere does
not change much the implementation, while imposing less restrictions
on the programmer.
