A tale I hear is that when HP had to deliver operating system source to the french government they stripped all comments and changed all variable and subroutine names to 32 byte strings of I 1 0 (zero) and O (uppercase O). It still compiled but was 100% useless to human readers.
A somewhat useful utility would be one that would compress C code into as small space as possible, stripping out all spaces and making variable names one character a piece when possible. And of course one to expand it back into 'formatted' text, style could even be incorporated.
I'm sure a Perl fanatic knows a quick solution... I'm always amazed at how short Perl code is.. :) Anyone care to take care of this utility?
press.c has been circulating for several years. I dont know of an unpress.c but a beautifier would do the same thing.
