Poll of the Day > any programming peeps on? I don't C very well

(+) Yeah! (+)

I have some C++ source code that's in plain un-parsed text and wanted to know if there's some sort of website or script that can make the code more readable by changing keywords into different colours... and maybe add linebreaks between branches and such

I coded in C++ a little back in college, but I remember literally none of it.

I feel like I vaguely remember a way to color-code lines of code, but that might have just been the program we were using to code in and compile with.

includes.h and stuff still confuse me...

ChatGPT can fairly easily transcribe code, it might be worth it to just copy and paste it there.

Well in more modern languages we don't use header files

Whenever you include another file or class you need to include the header file instead of the matching .cpp file. The C/C++ compiler isn't smart enough to do half the compilation automatically, but some people like it that way.

ya, the code I'm looking at is ancient, I'm trying to port it to GML
