CB(1)

NAME

cb − C program beautifier

SYNOPSIS

cb [-s] [-j] [-l length] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

Cb reads syntactically correct C programs from from its input or the given files, and writes them to its stdout with a more visualy pleasing spacing and indentation. Cb understands no C++ syntax bar newline terminated comments; and by default all user new-lines are preserved in the output.

Cb accepts the following options.

-s Write the code in the style of Kernighan and Ritchie found in The C Programming Language.

-j Put split lines back together.

-l length
Split lines that are longer than length.

NOTES

The format of structure initializations is unchanged by cb.
Punctuation that is hidden in preprocessing directives causes indentation errors.
