Erm, I get this, but I want a PP because the language doesn't do what I want.

- MereInterest 6y agoIn that case, why not fix the language, rather than adding an entirely separate subsystem to the language?
- throwaway_pdp09 6y agoBecause I'm not in a position to. However, that's pretty well what I said elsewhere, so we're in agreement.
- MereInterest 6y agoMakes sense. For me, I see the preprocessor as a fundamental part of the language, since that is how it is implemented in C and C++. I was figuring that it would take just as much effort to implement/change a preprocessor as it would to change the core language.
