[–] yakubin 4y ago ↗ I wish they removed trigraphs. They are removed from C++ since C++17. I hope they do that in a future C standard as well. Currently I switch to std=gnuXX in GCC solely for this reason (and sometimes to get access to some POSIX headers). [–] retrac 4y ago ↗ Is there any code that still uses them? I've never seen trigraphs in the wild.
