\def\9#1{} % this hack is explained in CWEB manual Appendix F11

@* Introduction.  This file contains the program \.{wmerge},
which takes two or more files and merges them according
to the conventions of \.{CWEB}. Namely, it takes an ordinary \.{.w}
file and and optional \.{.ch} file and sends the corresponding
\.{.w}-style file to standard output (or to a named file),
expanding all ``includes''
that might be specified by \.{@@i} in the original \.{.w} file.
(A more precise description appears in the section on ``command line
arguments'' below.)

typedef unsigned char eight_bits;
typedef char ASCII; /* type of characters inside \.{WEB} */

@ We predeclare some standard string-handling functions here instead of
including their system header files, because the names of the header files
are not as standard as the names of the functions. (There's confusion
between \.{<string.h>} and \.{<strings.h>}.)

@<Predecl...@>=
extern int strlen(); /* length of string */

@ The lowest level of input to the \.{WEB} programs
is performed by |input_ln|, which must be told which file to read from.
The return value of |input_ln| is 1 if the read is successful and 0 if
not (generally this means the file has ended).
The characters of the next line of the file
are copied into the |buffer| array,
and the global variable |limit| is set to the first unoccupied position.
Trailing blanks are ignored. The value of |limit| must be strictly less
than |buf_size|, so that |buffer[buf_size-1]| is never filled.

Some of the routines use the fact that it is safe to refer to
|*(limit+2)| without overstepping the bounds of the array.

@d buf_size 100

@<Definitions...@>=
ASCII buffer[buf_size]; /* where each line of input goes */
ASCII *buffer_end=buffer+buf_size-2; /* end of |buffer| */
ASCII *limit; /* points to the last character in the buffer */
ASCII *loc; /* points to the next character to be read from the buffer */

@ In the unlikely event that your standard I/O library does not
support |feof|, |getc| and |ungetc|, you may have to change things here.
@^system dependencies@>

Incidentally, here's a curious fact about \.{CWEB} for those of you
who are reading this file as an example of \.{CWEB} programming.
The file \.{stdio.h} includes a typedef for
the identifier |FILE|, which is not, strictly speaking, part of \CEE/.
It turns out \.{CWEAVE} knows that |FILE| is a reserved word (after all,
|FILE| is almost as common as |int|); indeed, \.{CWEAVE} knows all
the types of the ISO standard \CEE/ library. But
if you're using other types like {\bf caddr\_t},
@:caddr_t}{\bf caddr_t@>
which is defined in \.{/usr/include/sys/types.h}, you should let
\.{WEAVE} know that this is a type, either by including the \.{.h} file
at \.{WEB} time (saying \.{@@i /usr/include/sys/types.h}), or by
using \.{WEB}'s format command (saying \.{@@f caddr\_t int}).  Either of
these will make {\bf caddr\_t} be treated in the same way as |int|.

@<Func...@>=
input_ln(fp) /* copies a line into |buffer| or returns 0 */
FILE *fp; /* what file to read from */
{
  register int  c=EOF; /* character read; initialized so some compilers won't complain */
  register char *k;  /* where next character goes */
  if (feof(fp)) return(0);  /* we have hit end-of-file */
  limit = k = buffer;  /* beginning of buffer */
  while (k<=buffer_end && (c=getc(fp)) != EOF && c!='\n')
    if ((*(k++) = c) != ' ') limit = k;
  if (k>buffer_end)
    if ((c=getc(fp))!=EOF && c!='\n') {
      ungetc(c,fp); loc=buffer; err_print("! Input line too long");
@.Input line too long@>
  }
  if (c==EOF && limit==buffer) return(0);  /* there was nothing after
    the last newline */
  return(1);
}

@ Now comes the problem of deciding which file to read from next.
Recall that the actual text that \.{CWEB} should process comes from two
streams: a |web_file|, which can contain possibly nested include
commands \.{@@i}, and a |change_file|, which might also contain
includes.  The |web_file| together with the currently open include
files form a stack |file|, whose names are stored in a parallel stack
|file_name|.  The boolean |changing| tells whether or not we're reading
from the |change_file|.

The line number of each open file is also kept for error reporting.

@f line x /* make |line| an unreserved word */
@d max_include_depth 10 /* maximum number of source files open
  simultaneously, not counting the change file */
@d max_file_name_length 60
@d cur_file file[include_depth] /* current file */
@d cur_file_name file_name[include_depth] /* current file name */
@d cur_line line[include_depth] /* number of current line in current file */
@d web_file file[0] /* main source file */
@d web_file_name file_name[0] /* main source file name */

@<Definitions...@>=
int include_depth; /* current level of nesting */
FILE *file[max_include_depth]; /* stack of non-change files */
FILE *change_file; /* change file */
char file_name[max_include_depth][max_file_name_length];
  /* stack of non-change file names */
char change_file_name[max_file_name_length]; /* name of change file */
char alt_web_file_name[max_file_name_length]; /* alternate name to try */
int line[max_include_depth]; /* number of current line in the stacked files */
int change_line; /* number of current line in change file */
int change_depth; /* where \.{@@y} originated during a change */
boolean input_has_ended; /* if there is no more input */
boolean changing; /* if the current line is from |change_file| */
boolean web_file_open=0; /* if the web file is being read */

@ When |changing=0|, the next line of |change_file| is kept in
|change_buffer|, for purposes of comparison with the next
line of |cur_file|. After the change file has been completely input, we
set |change_limit=change_buffer|,
so that no further matches will be made.

Here's a shorthand expression for inequality between the two lines:

@d lines_dont_match (change_limit-change_buffer != limit-buffer ||
  strncmp(buffer, change_buffer, limit-buffer))

@<Def...@>=
char change_buffer[buf_size]; /* next line of |change_file| */
char *change_limit; /* points to the last character in |change_buffer| */

@ Procedure |prime_the_change_buffer| sets |change_buffer| in
preparation for the next matching operation. Since blank lines in the change
file are not used for matching, we have
|(change_limit==change_buffer && !changing)| if and only if
the change file is exhausted. This procedure is called only when
|changing| is 1; hence error messages will be reported correctly.

@<Func...@>=
void
prime_the_change_buffer()
{
  change_limit=change_buffer; /* this value is used if the change file ends */

  @<Skip to the next nonblank line; |return| if end of file@>;
  @<Move |buffer| and |limit| to |change_buffer| and |change_limit|@>;
}

@ While looking for a line that begins with \.{@@x} in the change file, we
allow lines that begin with \.{@@}, as long as they don't begin with \.{@@y},
\.{@@z} or \.{@@i} (which would probably mean that the change file is fouled up).

@ The following procedure is used to see if the next change entry should
go into effect; it is called only when |changing| is 0.
The idea is to test whether or not the current
contents of |buffer| matches the current contents of |change_buffer|.
If not, there's nothing more to do; but if so, a change is called for:
All of the text down to the \.{@@y} is supposed to match. An error
message is issued if any discrepancy is found. Then the procedure
prepares to read the next line from |change_file|.

current line is nonempty.

@* Reporting errors to the user.
A global variable called |history| will contain one of four values
at the end of every run: |spotless| means that no unusual messages were
printed; |harmless_message| means that a message of possible interest
was printed but no serious errors were detected; |error_message| means that
at least one error was found; |fatal_message| means that the program
terminated abnormally. The value of |history| does not influence the
behavior of the program; it is simply computed for the convenience
of systems that might want to use such information.

@d spotless 0 /* |history| value for normal jobs */
@d harmless_message 1 /* |history| value when non-serious info was printed */
@d error_message 2 /* |history| value when an error was noted */
@d fatal_message 3 /* |history| value when we had to stop prematurely */
@d mark_harmless {if (history==spotless) history=harmless_message;}
@d mark_error history=error_message

@<Definit...@>=
int history=spotless; /* indicates how bad this run was */

@ The command `|err_print("! Error message")|' will report a syntax error to
the user, by printing the error message at the beginning of a new line and
then giving an indication of where the error was spotted in the source file.
Note that no period follows the error message, since the error routine
will automatically supply a period. A newline is automatically supplied
if the string begins with |"|"|.

The actual error indications are provided by a procedure called |error|.

@ The error locations can be indicated by using the global variables
|loc|, |cur_line|, |cur_file_name| and |changing|,
which tell respectively the first
unlooked-at position in |buffer|, the current line number, the current
file, and whether the current line is from |change_file| or |cur_file|.
This routine should be modified on systems whose standard text editor
has special line-numbering conventions.

@* Command line arguments.
The user calls \.{wmerge} with arguments on the command line.
These are either file names or flags to be turned off (beginning with |"-"|)
or flags to be turned on (beginning with |"+"|.
The following globals are for communicating the user's desires to the rest
of the program. The various file name variables contain strings with
the names of those files. Most of the 128 flags are undefined but available
for future extensions.

@d show_banner flags['b'] /* should the banner line be printed? */
@d show_happiness flags['h'] /* should lack of errors be announced? */

@<Defin...@>=

char **argv; /* copy of |av| parameter to |main| */
char out_file_name[max_file_name_length]; /* name of |out_file| */
boolean flags[128]; /* an option for each 7-bit code */

@ The |flags| will be initially 1.

@<Set the default options@>=
show_banner=show_happiness=1;

@ We now must look at the command line arguments and set the file names
accordingly.  At least one file name must be present: the \.{WEB}
file.  It may have an extension, or it may omit it to get |'.w'|
added.

If there is another file name present among the arguments, it is the
change file, again either with an extension or without one to get |'.ch'|
An omitted change file argument means that |'/dev/null'| should be used,
when no changes are desired.
