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.
