I was not talking about name (I hate BITWRAP) but behavior.
Oh, my bad :)
but mainly since it only enables wrapping of the long-type.
I'd provde BIT and separate LLBIT for ones who really need long long.
People who intereseted in smaller than BITS_PER_LONG bitmaps shoud use
your proposal - BIT(x % DESIRED_WITH) and BIT should do modulo
BITS_PER_LONG internally.
I agree that _if_ there is a "BITWRAP" then it should be long, but I
don't see the reason for it to be in bitops.h when it is only input.h
that uses it. + I find it different with BIT since it works as well with
'char' as 'long'.
Also, I think it would be best if the name indicated it is a 'long'.
Am a little bit curious why you would like it in bitops.h, but won't
complain if you do (think you have noticed my view of it ;))
