  What’s wrong with #define var auto #define function void ? ;-) It follows tradition (https://minnie.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=V7/usr/src/cmd/sh/mac.h https://minnie.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=V7/usr/src/cmd...) Also, some compilers will accept 'foto' + i, interpreting 'foto' as a hex constant 0x666F746F. Similarly, 'bigImage' may be interpreted as a 64-bit literal.
