1) About ______________________________________________________________________

cline is a command line tool that counts code lines in your project folder. It
is designed to recursively find any source file matching specific rules and
count the line breaks within that file. You may specify file suffixes to include
or exclude as well as regular expressions for code lines that shall be excluded
(e.g. to exclude comments). By default a heuristic algorithm skips binary files.
You may configure the restrictiveness of this algorithm with command line
options.

Type cline --help for further information.

2) Build instructions _________________________________________________________

To build cline with gcc navigate to the root directory of the project and type:
  make

To rebuild cline type:
  make clean all

To install cline type (as root):
  make install

If you build cline with mingw under Windows, you need to type:
  make CONF=mingw
or
  make CONF=mingw clean all

3) Example usage ______________________________________________________________

You can test cline right away with the cline project files. Just type:
  cline -rms .c,.h --exclude-cstyle-comments

This will find any .c or .h file recursively in the cline project folder and
won't display other files (-m option). It will also skip comments when counting
lines.
