CATALOG
List marked routines in a Fortran or C++ file


CATALOG is a C++ program which produces a table of contents of a file containing C, C++, FORTRAN77, FORTRAN90, or MATLAB routines.

CATALOG only works if each routine has been marked in the appropriate way.

For C programs, the necessary marker is ' Purpose:'. CATALOG will print the line that comes two lines later, and assumes that the first 4 characters of that line are blank.

        void doodah ( int a, int b, int *c )
        
        /**********************************************************
        
          Purpose:
        
            DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.
        
        ...(further text of the routine follows)
      

For C++ programs, the necessary marker is '// Purpose:'. CATALOG will print the line that comes two lines later, and assumes that the first 6 characters of that line are to be ignored.

        void doodah ( int a, int b, int *c )
        
        //*********************************************************
        //
        //  Purpose:
        //
        //    DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.
        //
        ...(further text of the routine follows)
      

For FORTRAN77 programs, the necessary marker is 'cc'. CATALOG will print the remainder of any such line. This marker must begin in column 1, and INDEX assumes that the third character is a blank, and ignores it. I use the marker as follows:

              subroutine doodah ( a, b, c )
        
        c**********************************************************
        c
        cc DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.
        c
        ...(further text of the routine follows)
      

For FORTRAN90 programs, the necessary marker is '!!'. CATALOG will print the remainder of any such line. This marker must begin in column 1, and INDEX assumes that the third character is a blank, and ignores it. I use the marker as follows:

        subroutine doodah ( a, b, c )
        
        !**********************************************************
        !
        !! DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.
        !
        ...(further text of the routine follows)
      

For MATLAB programs, the necessary marker is '%%'. CATALOG will print the remainder of any such line. This marker must begin in column 1, and INDEX assumes that the third character is a blank, and ignores it. I use the marker as follows:

        function [ x, y ] = doodah ( a, b, c )
        
        %**********************************************************
        %
        %% DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.
        %
        ...(further text of the routine follows)
      

In each of the above cases, CATALOG will extract and print the line

DOODAH computes the mangletude of A hepcatted to B.

Sample output of the program looks like this:


        The file is of FORTRAN type.

        Index of column.f90:

        COLUMN extracts a given column from a file.
        CHRCTI reads an integer from a string.
        CHRDB1 removes blanks from a string, left justifying the remainder.
        DIGTEN returns the integer value of a base 10 digit.
        WRDFND finds the word of a given index in a string.
        WRDNEXRD "reads" words from a string, one at a time.
