Description

ightweight C++ is a programming language that looks like C++ (a lightweight C++ dialect) and is directly translated to readable C by the lwc preprocessor. It's more "K&R" and, well, more lightweight.

Important thing about lightweight C++ is that by studying the generated C code it is easy to understand how OOP features are implemented and what is the cost of everything.

Adding new features and extensions is also very easy (much easier than adding new C++ extensions to gcc at least), and this is one of lwc goals
