.TH ANSI2KNR 1 "19 Jan 1996"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
ansi2knr \- convert ANSI C to Kernighan & Ritchie C
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.I ansi2knr
|
|
[--varargs] input_file [output_file]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
If no output_file is supplied, output goes to stdout.
|
|
.br
|
|
There are no error messages.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.I ansi2knr
|
|
recognizes function definitions by seeing a non-keyword identifier at the left
|
|
margin, followed by a left parenthesis, with a right parenthesis as the last
|
|
character on the line, and with a left brace as the first token on the
|
|
following line (ignoring possible intervening comments). It will recognize a
|
|
multi-line header provided that no intervening line ends with a left or right
|
|
brace or a semicolon. These algorithms ignore whitespace and comments, except
|
|
that the function name must be the first thing on the line.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The following constructs will confuse it:
|
|
.br
|
|
- Any other construct that starts at the left margin and follows the
|
|
above syntax (such as a macro or function call).
|
|
.br
|
|
- Some macros that tinker with the syntax of the function header.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The --varargs switch is obsolete, and is recognized only for
|
|
backwards compatibility. The present version of
|
|
.I ansi2knr
|
|
will always attempt to convert a ... argument to va_alist and va_dcl.
