In #cplusplus "else if" is not a special case. You can do "else for", "else try", etc. No need for an inner block and extra indent

Using shell scripts in an Xcode build phase, it helps to pass -e to the shell to ensure that the build fails if a command fails

boost::make_transform_iterator makes iterators more useful. Easily do things like initialize a const string vector from a set of ints #cpp

#featurerequest explicitly pass default params in #cplusplus createDir("a/b/c", default, true). Named params would be even better
