I've released difftastic 0.46! In this release: * Ada support * Support for Arduino C++, better TOML handling, and a ton of upstream grammar updates * Fixed several nasty corner cases with trailing whitespace or binary/UTF-16 confusion

TIL that C++03 considered a file without a trailing newline to be undefined behaviour! https://stackoverflow.com/a/72377 This was fixed in C++11, but the problem was that #include was a textual operation that could produce invalid syntax if no newline was present.

I'm surprised I've never seen a lisp dialect where it's idiomatic to use trailing parens as you would in C. (foreach car cars (drive car) ) It makes structure very visible when you're trying to add a new expression. IDEs help, but is the ))) density always compelling?
