- Certainly a marvelously useful tool; I was doing it literally
- yesterday. If only I'd been caught on netnews :-).
-
- The next tool I'm looking for is a C cross referencer that will
- handle ANSI syntax. Perl is the obvious choice for writing
- such a tool; has anyone done it? I invested about two hours
- in an extremely primitive one myself, but I don't want to
- reinvent the wheel if somebody has designed and written one
- already.
-
- It needs to be fairly robust in the case of incomplete code;
- I like to use it as I'm writing. cxref supplied w/ SunOS
- barfs on my ragged code, and can't handle ANSI.
-
- Pointers to a freely available one in any language are okay,
- though Perl is the obvious choice.
