// -*- c-mode -*-

at the beginning or end of every file.


<VENT> If you're going to that, please for the love of God, make it: /* -*- c-mode -*- */

I'm working on a project right now porting an application from one
platform to another. There are some modules written in C and some
written in C++. However, the target platform's compiler is very strict
and doesn't handle the '//' comment style in 'C' files.

If it doesn't handle the // comment style then it's not C99 compliant. The // comment *is* valid C as of C99. If it's not compliant then you should get them to upgrade to a modern C compiler, for crying out loud.

Cheers,
Tanner
