npub135q269aw8vz0l4hsqxhukdl8ejjaf3zrdpumpmnnadmamn7r55csy7e57c (npub135q…e57c) That's really one of the funniest approaches to C I have encountered 🙂

(yes, I tried to use C using various other memory management strategies than manual mallloc/free for 30 years, early motivation being 640 kB limit in real mode DOS programs, later the motivation for different programming styles changed, driven largerly by fact, the high level scripting languages automated this stuff and doing it manually in C is just too labor intensive... like building pyramids, or so...)

Because the only low level language I can really use is C (Rust looks promising, but it turns out, that without some pre-existing C++ fluency, it is not that easy to begin with), I moved from trying to find user-friendly way to write C directly (macros, typedefs, libraries, clever namespace strategies...) rather to thinking about generating C source, transpiler style. (Follow me, if you find this approach interesting... but I don't know if I am about to release anything soon...)
