    Greppability also contributed to this thingy

    int
main()
{
  // dam
}

    in Mozilla C-style and GNU C-style projects. Of course, it’s a remnant of the past (grep ^main), but kgmgaehgka.

      For code bases where this is a thing, you could use greps context lines: grep ---before-context 1 "^main"
