I believe that C++ was designed so it could be implemented with a preprocessor (a more sophisticated proprocessor than M4, which brings #include and #define to C programming). Maybe LighspeedC could support plugging in your own custom preprocessor. Slower performance would probably be o.k. But then I could plug in a C++ preprocessor to LighspeedC, and have LighspeedC++!!!
