NAME
     cb - C program beautifier

SYNOPSIS
     cb [ -s ] [ -j ] [ -l leng ] [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION
     The cb comand reads C programs either from its arguments or
     from the standard input, and writes them on the standard
     output with spacing and indentation that display the struc-
     ture of the code.  Under default options, cb preserves all
     user new-lines.

     cb accepts the following options.

     -s                  Canonicalizes the code to the style of
                         Kernighan and Ritchie in The C Program-
                         ming Language.

     -j                  Causes split lines to be put back
                         together.

     -l leng             Causes cb to split lines that are longer
                         than leng.

ERRORS
     Punctuation that is hidden in preprocessor statements will
     cause indentation errors.

     Structure assignments are not handled properly.  The braces
     ({}) are treated like other braces in that they cause inden-
     tation.
