Hi,

Attached is a new revision of the proposal for WG14 for adding an
elementsof() operator (both the man(7) source, and the generated PDF).

v2.2:

-  Rename lengthof => elementsof.  Aaron found incompatible existing
   functions called lengthof() in the wild.

-  Require parens in ISO C.  Leave sizeof-like syntax as a (recommended)
   QoI detail.  It should give more freedom to implementations to start
   with something simple, if they need it.  [Jens]

-  Document prior art in C and C++.  [Jens, Aaron]

-  Document a rationale for the naming choice.  [Jens, Aaron]

-  Document backwards compatiblity.  [Jens, Aaron]

-  Document why we don't propose an uglified name.  [Jens]

-  Add a few specific questions for WG14.  [Jens]

Have a lovely day!
Alex
