Description-en: utilities to generate C function prototypes from C source code
Cproto is a program that generates function prototypes and variable
declarations from C source code. It can also convert function
definitions between the old style and the ANSI C style. This
conversion overwrites the original files, so make a backup copy of
your files in case something goes wrong.
