Open Source C Documentation Software

Doxygen is a JavaDoc like documentation system for C++, C, Java and IDL.

The Heirloom Project provides standard Unix utilities.

docbook2X converts DocBook documents to man and Texinfo format.

Overview of pre-defined compiler macros for standards, compilers, operating systems, and hardware architectures.

As software architect, you create a set of diagrams describing use-cases, requirements, structural views, behavioral and deployment views. crystal_facet_uml keeps element names and element hierarchies consistent. It exports diagrams in svg, pdf, ps and png formats to be used in text processing systems like docbook, html, latex. This tool runs on your local PC and is based on glib, gdk, gtk, cairo, pango, sqlite.

helpdeco dissects HLP help files (WinHelp) of Windows 3.0, 3.1, 3.11, and '95 and many MVB multi media viewer titles into all files required for a rebuild using the appropriate help compiler HC30, HC31, HCP, HCW, HCRTF, WMVC, MMVC or MVC.

doxymacs aims to make creating/using Doxygen-created documentation easier for the {X}Emacs user.

Parse formatted man pages and man page source from most flavors of UNIX. Convert to HTML, ASCII, TkMan, DocBook, and other formats.

The Unofficial OpenGL SDK is a collection of utility libraries designed to make it easy to learn the exciting world of 3D programming with the OpenGL library. This project is not associated with The Khronos Group.

ROBODoc is a documentation tool. It extracts the documentation from your source code and formats it in HTML, RTF, TeX, XML DocBook (PDF), or ASCII. Works with C, C++, Fortran, Perl, Scripts, Assembler, Tcl, Basic, and any language that supports remarks.

TEA is a text editor that provides a wide range of text-processing functions (over 100) and the syntax highlighting. There are two branches of TEA: Qt-based and GTK-based.

SLOCCount is an easy-to-use tool that counts Source Lines of Code (SLOC). It auto-determines the language(s) (inc. C, C++, Ada, Assembly, shell, COBOL, C#, Fortran, Haskell, Java, LISP/Scheme, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL). It also estimates cost & time.

A book aimed at C++ programmers of all experience using wxWidgets and wxDev-C++. Available in PDF and CHM formats this book is backed with downloadable source code examples.

SAM is a command line tool (for Slackware Linux) which uses a stack to provide control of variables, including PATH, and functions. To do this it uses a set of scripts, functions and compiled code. The result is a command line environment that changes the way you see and thus changes the way you think. It has helped me to write more and better shell code. Perhaps it will help you also.

A common markup language and a parser to generate documentation in any target format (Html, Latex, Trac, Mediawiki...). The core command relies on a Tcl library: it is easy to create new target formats. Doc files are parameterizable via a header.

Barracuda - a pcsc SIM contact manager developed for Linux.

The Computer History Graphing Project is a project to graph every computer standard, every piece of hardware, every OS, and every computer language in one big family tree.

DocScript is an approach to document preparation. It presents tools and utilities to edit and publish documents. The philosophy behind the DocScript project is to utilize the programming tools you're working with anyway in your daily work.

E2compr is a small patch against the ext2 file system that allows on-the-fly compression and decompression. But this is not properly documented. So I want to document the code of e2compr with the help of other interested people.

EDoC++ is both a lint-like tool and a documentation tool that specialises in analysing and documenting the use of exceptions in C++ code.

EcstasyYaal is a programming language with low level assembly-like syntax. It differs in that it is designed to be toyed with without worry of damaging the system, while keeping some of the feel of writing assembly.

A simple Unicode text editor which supports many encodings. Also nice Notepad replacement. To be a simple to use and fast Unicode HTML/XML editor. I have the intention to make it the Gnome2 editor. Yet no syntax highlighting.

A Python programming environment providing memory sizing, profiling and analysis, and a specification language that can formally specify aspects of Python programs and generate tests and documentation from a common source.
