Bem, my C_ToolShed came… BRAVO! I love it. It's worth 5 times the asking
price (no, you asked $20 bucks, I will NOT send the other $80 <grin>). I
want to get it to work with Manx…. It looks like it will with a minimum
of tweaking… you want I should notify you of what I tweak? I think that
as soon as it's convenient, I'll be running all my source code thru your
prettyprinter, and adopt your method for formatting C source. It's very
very similar to mine, but I tend to vary my style a bit. One request? Is it
possible to modify prettyprint to embed printer control codes as an option?
I think it would sometimes be useful to have Exec calls in red, or comments
in blue, or keywords in bold when printing to a color printer. It wouldn't
be for modifying the original code, just for creating a file that would
have the codes (isn't its default output to stdout? Then you could use ansi
codes to colorize it on the screen) for printing. I know it's sometimes
very useful to me to have the entire sourcecode in one long printout… if
it could be told to print a certain function/keyword in red, say, you could
see everywhere that was called at a glance. Ah, well. I've been talking
about this feature for a long time now, no biggie. Thanks again for mailing
it so promptly. –Eet–

Eet,
I'd appreciate any low-down on your tweaking since I made the Manx choice.

Sure thing. Haven't done any yet, tho. –Eet–

A new pretty printer is something I've been considering for a while. When I
get time, I'll get at it. I've wanted to do ocolor highlighting of things
too, but this will require a special editor, which is also in the works.
