NAME

       cccc - C and C++ Code Counter, a software metrics tool

SYNOPSIS

       cccc [options] file1.c ...

DESCRIPTION

       CCCC  analyses  and reports measurements of source code in C, C++, and Java.  It was developed to augment programmers' instinctive applica-
       tion of numeric rules of thumb about what constitutes high or low quality products with an automated analysis tool.

       CCCC processes the files listed on its command line.  If the filenames include '-', read a list of files from standard input.

       This program is work in progress and is not well documented.  Please be prepared to refer to the  source  code  for  the  meaning  of  some
       options.
