Useful Utilities
5 messages in this thread
I am preparing a C progamming utilities disk for my local users group. I
would appreciate suggestions on which PD C utilities / source which you
have found indispensable, very useful or just interesting. I currently
have already downloaded "Sorcerer", "Gadtoolsbox" and "Cats AmigaGuide". I
am currently using SAS/C6.2 an am not an expert. Suggestions and Comments
are welcome.
Iff.library, by christian weber is very handy, and has useful examples. Also a
hex calculator would be useful. there are some unix-port C formatters like
'indent' or prettyprint which might also be nice to have.
Yes, whatever the latest version of Amiga GNU Indent is would be a decent
addition. Someday, somewhere, everyone wants to be able to automate their
source formatting for printing or whatever. Indent is both highly
customizable, and quite reliable for that (IME).

I've been using the 'indent' that's in the library here. I'd love to find
something that automatically generates makefile dependencies. I tried the
'makedmake' but it generates rather DICE-specific makefiles, doesn't have
provisions for updating an existing makefile, and generates several Enforcer
hits per run.
And welcome to Compuserve!
Thanks for your suggestions. There is such a large body of code out there
that a guide is almost necessary.
