NAME

       decomment - remove comments from C and C++ files

SYNOPSIS

       decomment [file(s)]

DESCRIPTION

       decomment  processes  the  named files, or standard input if none are named, copying their
       contents to standard output with comments removed.  Line numbers in the input file(s)  and
       out file(s) are unchanged, that is, if main() occurs on line 40 in the input, it will also
       appear on line 40 in the output despite comment removal.

APPLICATIONS

       decomment may be used to remove comments in order to simply other programs  which  process
       source code.

DIAGNOSTICS

       No parsing-related diagnostics.
