The #define = line would mean the = would be effectively removed, rendering the for a syntax error. That is, assuming it is an equals sign they've redefined, and not similar looking character.

that's not a =, it's a ═ (U+2550 BOX DRAWINGS DOUBLE HORIZONTAL). you can tell because == doesn't connect but ══ does.

Fair point, I wasn't sure it was the equals, hence my initial question. Drawing boxes with the box drawing characters does make a lot more sense.

It looks like a different symbol of you were to compare the characters length in pixels

the equals and the horizontal double bars seem different to me.
