description: c2man is an automatic documentation tool that extracts comments
from C source code to generate functional interface
documentation in the same format as sections 2 & 3 of the Unix
Programmer's Manual. It requires minimal effort from the
programmer by looking for comments in the usual places near the
objects they document, rather than imposing a rigid
function-comment syntax or requiring that the programmer learn
and use a typesetting language. Acceptable documentation can
often be generated from existing code with no modifications.
conformance: supports both K&R and ISO/ANSI C coding styles
features: + generates output in nroff -man, TeXinfo, LaTeX or HTML format
+ handles comments as part of the language grammar
+ automagically documents enum parameter & return values
+ handles C (/* */) and C++ (//) style comments
- doesn't handle C++ grammar (yet)
requires: yacc/byacc/bison, lex/flex, and nroff/groff/texinfo/LaTeX.
ports: Unix, OS/2, MSDOS, VMS, Amiga.
portability: very high for unix, via Configure
status: actively developed; contributions by users are encouraged.
discussion: via a mailing list: send "subscribe c2man <Your Name>" (in the
message body) to [email protected]
help: from the author and other users on the mailing list:
announcements: patches appear first in comp.sources.bugs, and then in
comp.sources.misc.
