 New QC Syntax
 =============
 
-{{\>toc}}
-
 It is possible that at some point we decide to switch QC-compiler which requires some changes to the code.

+(Update: Blub's bocc compiler didn't make it, but someone else came along, both devs [joined forces](https://github.com/graphitemaster/gmqcc/graphs/contributors) and brought us [GMQCC](https://graphitemaster.github.io/gmqcc/doc.html).
+ This is now the QuakeC compiler used by the Xonotic project.)
