Take a look at SET's TurboVision port for DJGPP. It is complete but misses only one thing
from your point of view - it uses CPlusPlus::CodeStyle syntax.
You may try to create #DEFINEs for use your c_style::code_style like
#define c_style CPlusPlus
#define code_style CodeStyle

It would be much simpler than write all things from the scratch.
