SYNOPSIS
       c99 [-pedantic] [-pedantic-errors] [-D_ANSI_SOURCE] options ...

DESCRIPTION

       environment compatible with the -ansiC specification.

       This includes proper handling of trigraphs, disabling non-ANSI compiler
       features  (such  as asm , typeof , and the $ character in identifiers),
       and definition of the preprocessor symbol __STRICT_ANSI__ .

       The  status  of  C99  features  implemented  in  GCC  is  described  at
       http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/c99status.html

SEE ALSO

HISTORY
       Appeared in NetBSD 1.4 .

BUGS

       by "cc:".
