Here's a fun little bug that I just discovered in Microsoft C V6.0.
When I run the following program:
#include <stdio.h>
void main() {
printf("Question marks: '??'");
}
I get the following output:
Question marks: '^
It's not quite what I expected. And it breaks a whole series of
programs I have that use quoted question marks within strings :(
P.S., Does anybody else out there resent being patronized, belittled, and
disbelieved when they try to report a bug to Microsoft Technical Support?
