Can you explain what problem or use case this is trying to solve? As others have pointed out, if you're running procedural code and then calling "main" with no arguments, it's equivalent to adding one line of code in the file, even including the return code: exit( main() ); Is there a specific scenario where you see an automatic call being a significant improvement over that line?
