NAME

       protoize, unprotoize - create/remove ANSI prototypes from C code

SYNOPSIS

       protoize [options] files ....
       unprotoize [options] files ....

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page documents briefly the protoize, and unprotoize commands.  This manual page was written
       for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does  not
       have a manual page.  Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.

       protoize  is  an  optional part of GNU C.  You can use it to add prototypes to a program, thus converting
       the program to ANSI C in one respect.  The companion program `unprotoize' does the  reverse:  it  removes
       argument types from any prototypes that are found.

       When you run these programs, you must specify a set of source files as command line arguments.

OPTIONS

       These programs are non-trivial to operate, and it is neither possible nor desirable to properly summarize
       options in this man page.  Read the info documentation for more information.

SEE ALSO

       The programs are documented fully by Gcc: The use and the internals of the GNU  compiler,  available  via
       the  Info  system.   The  documentation  for protoize/unprotoize can be found in the subsection "Invoking
       GCC", under "Running Protoize."
