I used it for exception messages in Python. It is also present in version.c: https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/vim/src/ef30fcd05203feee8ca40a23ac75eed55549c681/src/version.c#cl-52 (#if protected with comment > * Construct the long version string. Necessary because > * VAX C can't catenate strings in the preprocessor. , #if checks whether we are using VMS and VAX compiler). It is used a lot in term.c: https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/vim/src/ef30fcd05203feee8ca40a23ac75eed55549c681/src/term.c#cl-166, https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/vim/src/ef30fcd05203feee8ca40a23ac75eed55549c681/src/term.c#cl-394, including #if defined(VMS)-protected https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/vim/src/ef30fcd05203feee8ca40a23ac75eed55549c681/src/term.c#cl-745 (note ESC_STR "some string" sequences: they expand to (char_u *)"\x27" "some string"). This all is protected with #ifdef EBCDIC though, I am not sure when this macros is defined (looks like a compatibility layer for the compilers you describe). Thus I think it is logical to replace with code similar to that in version.c which only avoids using preprocessor string concatenation when using VMS VAX compiler. Do you really need to support this? I heard it was replaced with DEC/Compaq C which supports C89. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
