* [TUHS] Jon Bentley's DFORMAT preprocessor now available @ 2020-06-21 5:35 Arnold Robbins 2020-06-21 9:34 ` Jaap Akkerhuis 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Arnold Robbins @ 2020-06-21 5:35 UTC (permalink / raw) To: tuhs Hello All. I have reconstituted Jon Bentley's DFORMAT preprocessor (troff and awk source) and made it available on GitHub. See https://github.com/arnoldrobbins/dformat. This is an awk program that reads a description of data layouts, such as registers or network packets, and generates PIC descriptions. A Makefile generates PDF from the dformat.ms file using GNU troff. Jon Bentley was helpful in the final stages, including contributing his original files. Enjoy!

It's Bentley's code. But nice of them to include it. I opened a github issue. Arnold ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
