It will recognize a +multi-line header provided that no intervening line ends with a left or right +brace or a semicolon. These algorithms ignore whitespace and comments, except +that the function name must be the first thing on the line. +.sp +The following constructs will confuse it: +.br + - Any other construct that starts at the left margin and follows the +above syntax (such as a macro or function call). +.br + - Some macros that tinker with the syntax of the function header. +.sp +The --varargs switch is obsolete, and is recognized only for +backwards compatibility. The present version of +\fBansi2knr\fR +will always attempt to convert a ... argument to va_alist and va_dcl. +.SH AUTHOR +L. Peter Deutsch wrote the original ansi2knr and +continues to maintain the current version; most of the code in the current +version is his work. ansi2knr also includes contributions by Francois +Pinard and Jim Avera .
