trigraphs ????

[Yann Collete]

Hello,

trigraphs are symbols composed with three chars and beginning with the
two following chars ::. These symbols are converted into a char. For example

::) -> ]
::( -> [
etc..

(I'm not sure of the correspondance between trigraphs and chars).
Now, I've got a question:

Is trigraphs used for something ????
