Command
gcc file.cpp -o file.cpp
leads to overwriting of the code by the compiled version
I propose error or backup of the overwritten file if it is equal to the sourse
file.
This happened just now. I was in deep debug.
While it didn't compile - no problem.
As soon as I finished with all compile errors - I lost the code.
This is not the first time I tried to do such a dumb thing. But earlier I
stopped myself. To great regret - not now.
