+cproto (generate function prototypes for C 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.
+
+The program isn't confused by complex function definitions as much as
+other prototype generators because it uses a yacc generated parser.
