ITYM, "pragma deprecated ("newscript");"
I realize that deprecate/depreciate are nearly synonymous, but it seems
that folks usually use "deprecate" to mark an interface obsolete and a
candidate for removal from future versions.
For example (http://www.rfc-editor.org/overview.html):
"""
RFC Categories
Each RFC has a "category" or "status" designation. The possible
categories (see RFC 2026 "The Internet Standards Process -- Revision
3") are:
...
* HISTORIC
These are former standards that have been actively deprecated.
"""
When I see "depreciate", I think of capital investments and tax
deductions... ;-)
