It is a bit crazy but forcing this kinda makes a habit. That way, a habitual user will tend to initialize other variable types as well. That's why I call it a standard, because the library has its own coding style. Take the ownership s

That sounds like a better idea. I'll test it. Debugging with my existing macros is a PITA, but if your suggestion works then it'll work well with debuggers as well! Thanks :)

Ok I'm saying this for the last time so I'll over-explain so everyone can follow the idea properly. Not all people can pronounce names correctly. In a language some names are easier to pronounce if you take away a few letters. Som

I especially am in love with how my formatted printer works. It's not a completely new solution and I think people have already done that. I'll also say that it's not very mature but it makes life a lot easier in some cases.

Yea the FMT trick uses VA_OPT. I consider myself a noob with C official specification, so you're probably right about that. I do kinda like how foreach is implemented right now. This allows me to perform some strict checking for easy l

Because I just don't like it as much and I wanted to see how much farther can we go by just using macro tricks.

I see, I'd like to give it a try then. I'll try adding some precedence here. I don't know how, though. This calls for some reading...
