PROGRAM:
NAME
ptop - The FPC Pascal configurable source beautifier.
Origin probably Pascal-TO-Pascal.
SYNOPSIS
ptop[-v][-iindent][-bbufsize][-coptsfile]<infile><outfile>
Description
ptop is a more or less configurable source beautifier for pascal sources, and specially
the ones supported by FPC (which are more or less Turbo Pascal or Delphi 2.0 compatible).
ptop belongs to the FPC utils package, which currently also contains ppdep , h2pas ,
ppudump and ppumove
Usage
ptop basically reformats "infile" and outputs the result to "outfile". ituses a
configuration file explained further below, and can generate a default configurationfile
for you to edit. (not needed if you use the defaults)
Options
-h Writes a short description of these switches.
-c read options from configuration file. A configuration file is not needed, ptop will
revert to internal defaults then. See also -g
-i ident
Sets the number of indent spaces used for BEGIN END; and other blocks.
-b bufsize
Sets the buffersize to bufsize. Default 255, 0 is considered non-valid and ignored.
-v be verbose. Currently only outputs the number of lines read/written and some error
messages.
-g ptop.cfg
Writes a default configuration file to be edited to the file ptop.cfg
Try to play with ptop and its configfile until you find the effect you desire. The
configurability and possibilities of ptop are quite large compared to shareware source
beautifier found on e.g. SIMTEL.

The program is a modernized (OOP, Streams, Delphi extensions) version based on a program
by Peter Grogono, who in turn based his program on a Pascal pretty-printer written by
Ledgard, Hueras, and Singer. See SIGPLAN Notices, Vol. 12, No. 7, July 1977, pages
101-105, and PP.DOC/HLP. This version of PP developed under Pascal/Z V4.0 or later.
Very minor modifications for Turbo Pascal made by Willett Kempton March 1984 and Oct 84.
Runs under 8-bit Turbo or 16-bit Turbo. Toad Hall tweak, rewrite for TP 5, 28 Nov 89
