The comment is part of a macro definition, precisely. I added the backslash because the syntax highlighting in 'kate' made me think that without the backslash there was a syntax error. The syntax highlighting in Emacs and Eclipse is correct, though. I'm doing C for 20 years now, and discovering today that the code #define X foo /* comment comment */ bar is well-formed, and X will expand to foo bar Simon, should I revert the commit?
