An installation of MinGW is required to build, compile, and install this program in windows.

For those who are new to using MinGW, after installing it, please read this to set it properly.

How to build and install

To build, compile, and install cps in debug build, just run the following command:

Installation note:
In linux, to use the program installed in this directory ~/local/bin, add the following to the .bashrc file.

How to use

To set up a C project:

$>cps <project name> -f <file name> -e <executable name>

Options:

• -e, --exe-name = Sets the filename of the executable name to be created.
  
• -f, --filename = Sets the filename of the C source file created inside the src/ directory.
