CScript

Compiler for C source code to both source and header file

Installation

1. Install go
2. Run go install
3. Set go/binn to path

Usage

cscript <input> <output>

• input: Input filename with extensions
  • File can be either .c, .h, or .cscript
  • .c or .h will be replaced with the compiled ones unless specified a different output.
  • Recommend using .cscript to perform transpiling if the code is frequently updated, as it is not replaced
• output: Output filename without extensions (optional, defaults to input)

Algorithms / Modes

• auto-flag, check based on the position of the first full non-static function.

Limitation

Currently, the CLI can only run in auto-flag mode which judge declarations such as includes, defines, typedefs, etc. by checking the position of first function (with a executable block). This has limitation when declarations are scattered across the file.

It's is recommended to keep these declarations declared before any executable function.

Why?

Apparently, this tool has not existed yet in an accessible manner. In short, I am way too lazy to write a separate header file especially when it's clearly possible to automate the task.
