This directory contains version 0.5 of the Software Productivity Unit

(SPU, pronounced ``spew''), which is a random program generator for C

and C++.

To configure, say `./configure'.

To build, say `make'.

To run, say `spu'.  This will produce a set of .h and .c files, plus a

.mk file which is a Makefile.  All the generated files share a base

name, which defaults to "file", and can be set with the `--basename'

option.

To compile the generated program, you can say either

        make -f file.mk

or

        gcc file*.c

By default, SPU does not generate a large program.  To generate larger

programs, you can use the `--functions' option to set the number of

functions that will be generated.  For instance, `--functions 10000'

together with default values for the other options, will generate 600,000

lines or about 10MB of source code.

To find out about the other available options, use the `--help' option.

TO DO

Finish describing the command options.

Generate more kinds of program constructs.

Add more kinds of macro generation.

Make the output code look more normal.
