NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       cb - Converts C source code into a readable form

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       cb [-js] [-llength] [file...]


       The  cb  command  reads  C programs from standard input or
       from specified files and writes them to standard output in
       a  form  that shows, through indentations and spacing, the
       structure of the code.

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Joins split lines.  Splits  lines  that  are  longer  than
       length  bytes.   Formats  the source code according to the
       style of Kernighan and Ritchie in The C  Programming  Language
  (Prentice-Hall,  Inc.,  1978; Englewood Cliffs, New
       Jersey.)

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       When called without options, the cb command does not split
       or  join  lines.   Note  that  punctuation in preprocessor
       statements can cause indentation errors.

EXAMPLES    [Toc]    [Back]

       To create a version of pgm.c called pgm.pretty.c  that  is
       easy  to  read, with no lines longer than 60 bytes, enter:
       cb -l60 pgm.c > pgm.pretty.c
