.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
-The C preprocessor is a \fImacro processor\fR that is used automatically
-by the C compiler to transform your program before actual compilation.
-It is called a macro processor because it allows you to define
-\&\fImacros\fR, which are brief abbreviations for longer constructs.
+The C preprocessor, often known as \fIcpp\fR, is a \fImacro processor\fR
+that is used automatically by the C compiler to transform your program
+before compilation. It is called a macro processor because it allows
+you to define \fImacros\fR, which are brief abbreviations for longer
+constructs.
.PP
-The C preprocessor is intended only for macro processing of C, \*(C+ and
-Objective C source files. For macro processing of other files, you are
-strongly encouraged to use alternatives like M4, which will likely give
-you better results and avoid many problems. For example, normally the C
-preprocessor does not preserve arbitrary whitespace verbatim, but
-instead replaces each sequence with a single space.
+The C preprocessor is intended to be used only with C, \*(C+, and
+Objective C source code. In the past, it has been abused as a general
+text processor. It will choke on input which does not obey C's lexical
+rules. For example, apostrophes will be interpreted as the beginning of
+character constants, and cause errors. Also, you cannot rely on it
+preserving characteristics of the input which are not significant to
+C-family languages. If a Makefile is preprocessed, all the hard tabs
+will be removed, and the Makefile will not work.
.PP
-For use on C-like source files, the C preprocessor provides four
-separate facilities that you can use as you see fit:
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Inclusion of header files. These are files of declarations that can be
-substituted into your program.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Macro expansion. You can define \fImacros\fR, which are abbreviations
-for arbitrary fragments of C code, and then the C preprocessor will
-replace the macros with their definitions throughout the program.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Conditional compilation. Using special preprocessing directives, you
-can include or exclude parts of the program according to various
-conditions.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Line control. If you use a program to combine or rearrange source files
-into an intermediate file which is then compiled, you can use line
-control to inform the compiler of where each source line originally came
-from.
+Having said that, you can often get away with using cpp on things which
+are not C. Other Algol-ish programming languages are often safe
+(Pascal, Ada, etc.) So is assembly, with caution. \fB\-traditional\fR
+mode preserves more white space, and is otherwise more permissive. Many
+of the problems can be avoided by writing C or \*(C+ style comments
+instead of native language comments, and keeping macros simple.
+.PP
+Wherever possible, you should use a preprocessor geared to the language
+you are writing in. Modern versions of the \s-1GNU\s0 assembler have macro
+facilities. Most high level programming languages have their own
+conditional compilation and inclusion mechanism. If all else fails,
+try a true general text processor, such as \f(CW@docref\fR{M4}.
.PP
C preprocessors vary in some details. This manual discusses the \s-1GNU\s0 C
preprocessor, which provides a small superset of the features of \s-1ISO\s0
-Standard C.
-.PP
-In its default mode, the \s-1GNU\s0 C preprocessor does not do a few things
-required by the standard. These are features which are rarely, if ever,
-used, and may cause surprising changes to the meaning of a program which
-does not expect them. To get strict \s-1ISO\s0 Standard C, you should use the
-\&\fB\-std=c89\fR or \fB\-std=c99\fR options, depending on which version
-of the standard you want. To get all the mandatory diagnostics, you
-must also use \fB\-pedantic\fR.

.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
The C preprocessor expects two file names as arguments, \fIinfile\fR and
means to write to standard output. Also, if either file is omitted, it
means the same as if \fB-\fR had been specified for that file.
.PP
-Here is a table of command options accepted by the C preprocessor.
-These options can also be given when compiling a C program; they are
-passed along automatically to the preprocessor when it is invoked by the
-compiler.
-.Ip "\fB\-P\fR" 4
-.IX Item "-P"
-Inhibit generation of \fB#\fR\-lines with line-number information in the
-output from the preprocessor. This might be useful when running the
-preprocessor on something that is not C code and will be sent to a
-program which might be confused by the \fB#\fR\-lines.
-.Ip "\fB\-C\fR" 4
-.IX Item "-C"
-Do not discard comments. All comments are passed through to the output
-file, except for comments in processed directives, which are deleted
-along with the directive. Comments appearing in the expansion list of a
-macro will be preserved, and appear in place wherever the macro is
-invoked.
-.Sp
-You should be prepared for side effects when using \fB\-C\fR; it causes
-the preprocessor to treat comments as tokens in their own right. For
-example, macro redefinitions that were trivial when comments were
-replaced by a single space might become significant when comments are
-retained. Also, comments appearing at the start of what would be a
-directive line have the effect of turning that line into an ordinary
-source line, since the first token on the line is no longer a \fB#\fR.
-.Ip "\fB\-traditional\fR" 4
-.IX Item "-traditional"
-Try to imitate the behavior of old-fashioned C, as opposed to \s-1ISO\s0 C.
-.RS 4
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Traditional macro expansion pays no attention to single-quote or
-double-quote characters; macro argument symbols are replaced by the
-argument values even when they appear within apparent string or
-character constants.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Traditionally, it is permissible for a macro expansion to end in the
-middle of a string or character constant. The constant continues into
-the text surrounding the macro call.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-However, traditionally the end of the line terminates a string or
-character constant, with no error.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-In traditional C, a comment is equivalent to no text at all. (In \s-1ISO\s0
-C, a comment counts as whitespace.)
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-Traditional C does not have the concept of a ``preprocessing number''.
-It considers \fB1.0e+4\fR to be three tokens: \fB1.0e\fR, \fB+\fR,
-and \fB4\fR.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-A macro is not suppressed within its own definition, in traditional C.
-Thus, any macro that is used recursively inevitably causes an error.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-The character \fB#\fR has no special meaning within a macro definition
-in traditional C.
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-In traditional C, the text at the end of a macro expansion can run
-together with the text after the macro call, to produce a single token.
-(This is impossible in \s-1ISO\s0 C.)
-.Ip "\(bu" 4
-None of the \s-1GNU\s0 extensions to the preprocessor are available in
-\&\fB\-traditional\fR mode.
-.RE
-.RS 4
-.Sp
-Use the \fB\-traditional\fR option when preprocessing Fortran code, so
-that single-quotes and double-quotes within Fortran comment lines (which
-are generally not recognized as such by the preprocessor) do not cause
-diagnostics about unterminated character or string constants.
-.Sp
-However, this option does not prevent diagnostics about unterminated
-comments when a C-style comment appears to start, but not end, within
-Fortran-style commentary.
-.Sp
-So, the following Fortran comment lines are accepted with
-\&\fB\-traditional\fR:
-.Sp
-.Vb 3
-\& C This isn't an unterminated character constant
-\& C Neither is "20000000000, an octal constant
-\& C in some dialects of Fortran
-.Ve
-However, this type of comment line will likely produce a diagnostic, or
-at least unexpected output from the preprocessor, due to the
-unterminated comment:
+All single-letter options which take an argument may have that argument
+appear immediately after the option letter, or with a space between
+option and argument: \fB\-Ifoo\fR and \fB\-I foo\fR have the same
+effect. Long options that take arguments require a space between option
+and argument.

-Process \s-1ISO\s0 standard trigraph sequences. These are three-character

-stand for single characters. For example, \fB??/\fR stands for
-\&\fB\e\fR, so \fB'??/n'\fR is a character constant for a newline. By
-default, \s-1GCC\s0 ignores trigraphs, but in standard-conforming modes it
-converts them. See the \fB\-std\fR option.
+If you wish to define a function-like macro on the command line, write
