Coming to your no empty file restriction, IIRC an empty file doesn't compile in GCC.

| Jan 2, 2012 at 15:15 | comment | added | shamp00 | @st0le: Thanks for that, I failed to find the name for this type of program (and I am surprised to find that this is the first use of the polyglot tag on this site). | |
| Jan 2, 2012 at 15:15 | comment | added | shamp00 | @PeterTaylor: Point taken, and many languages are likely to be similar, e.g., C/C++, Tex/LaTeX. Perhaps that's the nature of the game - to win you have to target the language that has the most number of near-variants. | |
| Jan 2, 2012 at 13:14 | comment | added | Peter Taylor | If sh, bash, and zsh count as different languages even when it's essentially only using sh then I think you need to specify precisely what you count as different languages. E.g. Perl 4 vs Perl 5.10 have some significant differences. | |
