The type changed from being VOID\nto being NULL, and then something called VOID came along with a similar\nproblem.  So `<void>` was used for that.\n\nAs the needs to be more expressive about the properties of parameters\ngrew, tags began to control other features...making it a bit saturated\nto also be using tags for void and null indications.  The modern idea\nis to use quasiforms to represent their antiforms, and it seemed like\na pretty reasonable solution...but didn't fit the situation with void\nnot being an antiform of the word \"void\"\n\nBut that's changed, and now void *is* the antiform of the word void.\nSo ~void~ makes a good indicator in the typespec if you want to call\nmore attention to it than with the function VOID?.\n\nSo this finally bites the bullet and shifts to using ~null~ and ~void~.","shortMessageHtmlLink":"Switch to ~null~ and ~void~ (vs <code>&lt;opt&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;void&gt;</code>)"}},{"before":"f8ac583f2cef8f581505e7736da5baf8e7c6de89","after":"db0c914ef432adbd69ec7bba6ae81c5305b8e9c9","ref":"refs/heads/master","pushedAt":"2024-03-01T09:14:07.000Z","pushType":"push","commitsCount":4,"pusher":{"login":"hostilefork","name":"Hostile Fork","path":"/hostilefork","primaryAvatarUrl":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/20440?s=80&v=4"},"commit":{"message":"Revert \"Make strings load in new style\"\n\nThis reverts commit 886c1cda31d939081ad7c77c90972c6148f5caae.","shortMessageHtmlLink":"Revert \"Make strings load in new style\""}},{"before":"7024a99e34a28474fcf8eed5b1b374cafd83a5da","after":"f5abebf81650ad037cdb47ab21eb71951da77256","ref":"refs/heads/r3c","pushedAt":"2024-02-29T11:26:32.000Z","pushType":"push","commitsCount":71,"pusher":{"login":"hostilefork","name":"Hostile Fork","path":"/hostilefork","primaryAvatarUrl":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/20440?s=80&v=4"},"commit":{"message":"Add /FS switch to MSC command lines for JOM\n\nAllow multi-core builds","shortMessageHtmlLink":"Add /FS switch to MSC command lines for JOM"}},{"before":"c131624acacacec65f9a9aaf7feca06248a179fe","after":"f8ac583f2cef8f581505e7736da5baf8e7c6de89","ref":"refs/heads/master","pushedAt":"2024-02-27T21:10:12.000Z","pushType":"push","commitsCount":5,"pusher":{"login":"hostilefork","name":"Hostile Fork","path":"/hostilefork","primaryAvatarUrl":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/20440?s=80&v=4"},"commit":{"message":"Kill off grievous @ hack which decayed quasiforms\n\nSuppressing evaluation in the API was at first done with rebQ():\n\n     rebElide(\"append block\", rebQ(word));\n\nA nice trick came along to use the @ operator, which was cleaner:\n\n     rebElide(\"append block @\", word);\n\nBut by design you can't splice antiforms in feeds.
