Line breaks that can be removed and adjacent lines directly concatenated without an impact on the output, must be removed.` for real life line breaks are usually not meaningful, though (`int fffff(\|type1 value1,\|type2 value2){`)

Jun 4, 2017 at 23:18	comment	added	Nick T		@ais523 the rule is meant to prevent inserting linebreaks everywhere possible vs everywhere necessary, where that then prompts abuse of the grammar to make them necessary. Rules-wise, remove the first line break, concatenating the adjacent lines. If it produces the same output, it is deemed removable, if not, it isn't. Repeat down the length of the program.

Jun 4, 2017 at 1:19	comment	added	Ørjan Johansen		@Hosch250 I have interpreted the concatenation as being "with no space between", so you can still have newlines between tokens that would fuse together into one, and even without that interpretation e.g. after to-end-of-line comment markers.

Jun 3, 2017 at 17:02	comment	added	user10766		I take it that these rules require C-based programs to be written on one line since whitespace is not significant?

Jun 2, 2017 at 23:37	comment	added	nderscore		Not sure how I feel about the "meaningful" newlines rule. When it comes to legal syntax, a wide majority of programming languages don't care about newlines and will let you write the entire program on a single line - just take a look at most of the code-golf solutions here :-P
Jun 2, 2017 at 22:56	comment	added	Wheat Wizard♦		On the newline restriction, if removing a specific group of newlines causes it to work but removing any single newline causes it to fail, must the newlines be removed? They are syntactically important is just that removing some of them cancels out their importance.
Jun 2, 2017 at 22:49	comment	added	user62131		An ambiguity we've found in the rule about linebreaks: if the program breaks upon removing one linebreak, but unbreaks upon removing additional linebreaks (i.e. removing any single linebreak breaks the program, but removing a combination of linebreaks can leave it unchanged), is that a valid answer? This came up in Lenguage, but it's probably also relevant in Retina (which cares about whether the program has an even or odd number of lines).
