So part of this program was a preprocessor and parser for the C header
files? I don't quite yet see that it is that easy to derive all the meaning
required from a C header like this one:

> For example this declaration in gl.h

> 			 GLboolean blue, GLboolean alpha  );

It would be fascinating to see at least part of your program if you are able
and happy to release it (or release something similar). Even though as you
say it is nothing like complete it could still give some of us a clue in the
right direction.

Thanks very much,
Sean
