Then why not code everything in Assembly? Or do a "cat > mplayer" and
enter opcodes by hand. It's about chosing the right tool for the
job. For MPlayer, C++ isn't the right tool, but for a lot of other cases
it is (or C is at least a major inconvenience).

And C coders are elitist in that they think that every language other
than C sucks big time. So what else is new?
