PURPOSE: Auxiliary program used by mkopt to create C-source fragment containing declarations for argument list parameters. The argument list parameters must be specified in an input file in a format also used by the parameter preprocessor ppp.c and described more fully there.
dpp input_file {DefaultDim} > sourcefragment
OptName VarName{InitialValue} # optional commentFor each such line, the first token OptName is the name of the option, but is ignored by dpp. (it is read only by ppp ). The second token VarName is assumed to be a variable name starting with one of the letters 'b' (binary integer), 'i' (integer), 'c' (char) 'f' (float), 't' (text string). The next letter must be a capital letter. The variable name may be followed (no interrupting white space!) by an optional initial value that must be enclosed in curly braces (is ignored but tolerated by dpp, but will be used by ppp). After that, an optional comment (starting with a '#' - char) may follow.
