The Cscript Style Guide – CScript is the standard C

It looks like the B programming language.
irishcoffee•2w ago
This is interesting, but I wouldn't say it is valid C. main() doesn't know about greet(auto s) and wouldn't be able to call it in valid C89, right?
oguz-ismail2•2w ago
It is valid C89. greet is automatically declared as

    int greet();
at call site.
kevin_thibedeau•2w ago
It's valid K&R since everything defaults to int. The linker will match the symbols sans prototype. That wasn't obsoleted until C23.
irishcoffee•1w ago
TIL, thank you! (How embarrassing haha)
TZubiri•2w ago
To compile CScript to C:

apt install gcc-dev

cat hello.cs > hello.c

gcc hello.c

eqvinox•2w ago
Nope… you need to follow the instructions:

  gcc -std=gnu89 -m32 -fno-builtin
because GCC defaults to ISO C23 these days, and that will not work, and neither will anything where int and a pointer aren't the same size :)
krylon•2w ago
> 0[str] is valid and asserts dominance.

At this point I came dangerously close to spewing water all over my keyboard. :D

eqvinox•2w ago
Very high quality shitposting. Approved.
gschizas•2w ago
Given that CScript is the name of the "Console Based Script Host" for Windows, that can run JScript (Microsoft's old variant of JavaScript) and VBScript, and supposedly other pluggable scripting languages (I've never seen one in the wild), calling this "Cscript" is not a good idea.
bheadmaster•2w ago
It's a joke language, I doubt it will cause any significant ambiguity ever.
