Ah...you're right. From the GLSL 4.20 spec, page 10 (page 16 of the
PDF): "There are no trigraphs." I'll take that as a clarification. It
doesn't explicitly mention digraphs, however.
According to my (draft but nearly complete) copy of the C++98 spec,
section "2.5 Alternative tokens [lex.digraph]" does include <% and %>.
So they're not just C99. But it also includes things like "compl,"
"bitand," "or_eq," and so on...which definitely aren't part of GLSL.
So, seeing as GLSL explicitly omits trigraphs and doesn't explicitly
define any alternate token spellings, it's probably safe to assume they
have no special meaning.
