cproto (http://invisible-island.net/cproto/) was used to do the bulk of
the work in batch; even the most recent version had some issues with
typedef'd parameters; a quick "patch" was to modify `lex.l` to
explicitly include all vim typedefs as known types. One example from
`vim.h` is
typedef unsigned char char_u;
which was added in `lex.l` as
<INITIAL>char_u { save_text_offset(); return T_CHAR; }
Even with these changes there were some problems:
* Two files (`mbyte.c` and `os_unix.c`) were not cleanly converted.
* Any function with the `UNUSED` macro in its parameter list was not converted.
Rather than spend more time fixing the automated approach, the two files
`mbyte.c` and `os_unix.c` were converted by hand.
The `UNUSED` macros were compiler specific, and the alternative, generic
version would require a different syntax, so in order to simplify the
conversion all uses of `UNUSED` were stripped, and then the sources were
run back through cproto. It is planned to reconsider each use of
`UNUSED` manually using a new macro definition.
- remove SELinux dependency for now
- OSX: find libintl.h
- OSX: fix compile errors
- OSX: use hack around gettext nonsense
- fix gettext on ubuntu
- work around Arch's lack of -ltermcap
- add README.md
- Cleanup source tree, leaving only files necessary for compilation/testing
- Process files through unifdef to remove tons of FEAT_* macros
- Process files through uncrustify to normalize source code formatting.
- Port the build system to cmake
