Has anyone written something like cshort? Basically, cshort is filter you apply to C files to give you shortened views of the file. You specify different levels of detail. For example, level 0 just returns the source unchanged and level 1 returns only the function signatures. cshort -L 1 foo.c -------------------- int foobar1(a) int a; int foobar2(a) int a; -------------------- Level 2 returns pre-conditions and post-conditions. You could probably make a .cshortrc to specify what these look like. cshort -L 2 foo.c -------------------- int foobar(a) int a; REQUIRE(a > 0); ENSURE(retval < 100); int foobar(a) int a; REQUIRE(a > 1); Level 3 returns all of the above plus comments. cshort -L 3 foo.c ----------------------- /* * My foobar prog... */ int foobar(a) int a; /* * Pre-condition */ REQUIRE(a>0); /* * Calculate the N-Cube graphical inverse vortex. */ /* * Post-condition */ ENSURE(retval < 100); For Freebsd, you might add an option to skip the first comment which is usually a long copyright. This is from the Eiffel programming environment, but I think the idea is pretty useful for C.
