Cweed4.exe

Cweed4 is a C source file weeder for Windows, written in Win32Forth.

It only changes whitespace (formatting) and does not otherwise change the content of the file.

This is analogous to weeding a garden, where the plants are left untouched but the bits between (weeds) may be seriously modified.

Cweed is an experiment in specifying a coding standard in the form of an executable program.

Cweed4v06_2022May10.7z

To run Cweed4, download the 7z file, unzip it and run go.bat or Cweed4.exe


It is designed only to modify whitespace, but please make a backup before using.

New in Cweed4 V4.02

The file Cweed4_script.f is now loaded when running the Barr 3.1 function.

This allows the rules to be changed and reloaded without re-compiling Cweed.

i.e. the one that existed when Cweed4 was compiled.

New in Cweed4 V4.02 2021 Nov 11

Changes to Cweed4_script.f to improve the Barr 3.1 coding rules.

Previous versions of Cweed4 V4.02 could be used if you simply update the Cweed4_script.f file, but this causes an “interesting” version control effect :

Cweed4.exe is compiled with the version of Cweed4_script.f that exists at the time that it is created. If this is different to the Cweed4_script that exists when Cweed4.exe is run you can get a different behaviour if you delete Cweed4_script.f (because it would use the pre-compiled words from an earlier Cweed4_script.f file).

Not sure how to handle this yet… Maybe compare a hash of the built in script to the script file, and issue a warning if they are different… Watch this space :-)
