Let me try to give a better and shorter answer than in my previous message. Even if we are talking about a C program, there are, of course, plenty of valid reasons to play around with invalid source. One may want to test how some program, maybe a program one is writing, parser, preprocessor, compiler, whatever, reacts to various forms of invalid input. Sincerely, Luc.
