Hi all,

Sorry if this is a FAQ. However, I did not found anything on this is the FAQ
list.

I am coming from UNIX mainframes where I am usually developping my C codes. I
have now to develop a code on a PC platform, and I choose the DJGPP/RHIDE
development environment. It works well.

I am in need now for an utility program that can do an accurate check of the
code before compiling it. Actually I need something like lint, wich is
standard in all UNIX OS. I mean something that can - of course - identify
syntax problems and wrong declarations, but also all weird things like
declaration of parameters/functions not used in the remaining part of the
code, or global parameters than could be local, etc..

The use of -Wall is helpfull, but - as long as I've seen - it does not
generate warnings if a parameter/function is declared and unused, etc.

Is there an utility program doing what I want? Moreover, it would be great if
this could be ran within RHIDE..

Thanks for any answer on that.
