#pragma syntax <C|DM> [for|switch]
Changes the syntax used to parse certain statements. This can be more natural for users who prefer non-DM style, and can sometimes do things that regular DM syntax can’t do.
Changing the for() loop syntax to C will use semicolons to separate the Init, Test, Inc sections instead of commas. That means commas can be used to chain multiple statements together instead.
In switch(), C syntax changes the if/else statements to use C’s case and/or default keywords, followed by a colon, and the break statement is required to skip to the end of the switch unless you want to fall through to the next case. Fall-through behavior isn’t possible in the default DM syntax.

case 2, 3:
usr << "This is case 2 or 3."
// no break, fall through
case 4 to 6:
usr << "This is case 4 through 6 (or maybe 2 or 3)."
break
default:
usr << "This is a different case.
