;;; Commentary:

;; USAGE =============================================================

;; In C mode C-C C-e is bound to c-macro-expand.  The result of the
;; expansion is put in a separate buffer.  A user option allows the
;; window displaying the buffer to be optimally sized.
;;
;; When called with a C-u prefix, c-macro-expand replaces the selected
;; region with the expansion.  Both the preprocessor name and the
;; initial flag can be set by the user.  If c-macro-prompt-flag is set
;; to a non-nil value the user is offered to change the options to the
;; preprocessor each time c-macro-expand is invoked.  Preprocessor
;; arguments default to the last ones entered.  If c-macro-prompt-flag
;; is nil, one must use M-x set-variable to set a different value for
;; c-macro-cppflags.

;; A c-macro-expansion function is provided for non-interactive use.

;; INSTALLATION ======================================================

;; Put the following in your ~/.emacs file.

;; If you want the *Macroexpansion* window to be not higher than
;; necessary:
;;(setq c-macro-shrink-window-flag t)
;;
;; If you use a preprocessor other than /lib/cpp (be careful to set a
;; -C option or equivalent in order to make the preprocessor not to
;; strip the comments):
;;(setq c-macro-preprocessor "gpp -C")
;;
;; If you often use a particular set of flags:
;;(setq c-macro-cppflags "-I /usr/include/local -DDEBUG"
;;
;; If you want the "Preprocessor arguments: " prompt:
;;(setq c-macro-prompt-flag t)

;; BUG REPORTS =======================================================

;; Please report bugs, suggestions, complaints and so on to
;; pot@gnu.org (Francesco Potorti`).

;; IMPROVEMENTS OVER emacs 18.xx cmacexp.el ==========================

;; - A lot of user and programmer visible changes.  See above.
;; - #line directives are inserted, so __LINE__ and __FILE__ are
;;   correctly expanded.  Works even with START inside a string, a
;;   comment or a region #ifdef'd away by cpp. cpp is invoked with -C,
;;   making comments visible in the expansion.
;; - All work is done in core memory, no need for temporary files.

;; ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ===================================================

;; A lot of thanks to Don Maszle who did a great work of testing, bug
;; reporting and suggestion of new features.  This work has been
;; partially inspired by Don Maszle and Jonathan Segal's.

;; BUGS ==============================================================

;; If the start point of the region is inside a macro definition the
;; macro expansion is often inaccurate.
