Introduction
ΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔ

BP7SB is a useful tool with many options to format Pascal code in a
consistent form. BP7SB uses default values to reformat the source
code, but with the options you can develop some other shape. It
makes your code OPTICALLY beautiful.

BP7SB - if you want - makes keyword conversion (lower, mixed, upper
      case or according to your own pattern).
BP7SB - if you want - structures loops.
BP7SB - if you want - arranges record and object structures.
BP7SB - if you want - sets the length of source code line.
BP7SB - if you want - inserts space characters to make your source
      code better readable.

But BP7SB does not check for syntax errors.

The original source file will be saved as a *.BAK backup file.
You don't use .BAK, .COM, .DLL, .EXE, .OBJ, .RES, .TPP, .TPU
or .TPW files as input. If you don't use extension after the
input file name, .PAS will be added. Standard wildcards may
be used.

BP7SB 1.00 recognizes following builtin keywords:
  739 functions
  197 procedures
   62 reserved words
   93 types
  409 variables and constants

Using BP7SB Optionen
ΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔ

Syntax:

BP7SB [options] source[.PAS]
options are:
-a       : about BP7SB
-b:<f|p|r|t|v> : (one of them) show builtin
           functions or procedures or reserved words or types or variables
-c:file  : get options from a file, separators are <CrLf(EoLn), ,EoF>
           all options are allowed except -a, -b:<f|p|r|t|v> and -c:file
-d:n     : n=depth of loops, default=2, max=10, n=0 => no structuring loops
-f:<u|l> : builtin functions in upper or lower case, default is mixed case
-k       : keep source compact
-o:file  : file=collection of own words, length of words 1-26 character(s)
           contents of line from # ignored, builtin words will be overwritten
-p:<u|l> : buitlin procedures in upper or lower case, default is mixed case
-r:<u|l> : builtin reserved words in upper or lower case, default is mixed case
-s:m     : m=length of line in the source, default(max)=255, min=40
-t:<u|l> : builtin types in upper or lower case, default is mixed case
-v:<u|l> : builtin variables, constants in upper or lower case, def. is mixed
-w       : no converting builtin keywords
-y:z     : z=position of lines beginning with { or (*, default is structured

The order of arguments is not significant. The arguments are not
case sensitive. If you use -a or -b:<f|p|r|t|v> options, you will
get your information on a standard output and after that the
program terminates also if you use other command options.

Command options followed by : (colon) must have ONE parameter,
which will follow immediatelly after the option with no space.
< > (angle brackets) give you a possible list of option
parameters which must be present.

Comments in { } or in (* *) and strings in ' ' or " " will not alter.

Options:
ΔΔΔΔΔΔΔΔ

-a     Gives you a short info about BP7SB.

-b:<f|p|r|t|v>     Puts the builtin keywords to a standard output.
The keyword groups are: f-functions, p-procedures, r-reserved words,
t-types, v-variables and constants. If you will see more than one
keyword group, you may use this option several times. The following
exmple gives you all builtin keywords:

  BP7SB -b:f -b:p -b:r -b:t -b:v | more

-c:file     Like a configurations file.
You may save the frequently used options in a file. You may use
the options also in several lines. The contents of line ignored
from a # character. The separator of options are the space, end
of line and end of file characters. The options saved in the file
may updated by a command line. You may save all options in the
file except -a, -b:<f|p|r|t|v> and -c:file options. If the file
isn't in the active directory, you should use the complete path.

If myoptions.cfg is:

-d:3 -f:u
#-y:5
-y:6
-r:u

You may use:

  BP7SB -c:myoptions.cfg -y:1 mysource.pas

-d:n     Switch structuring off or set the depth of stuctures.
Allowed values of n are between 0 and 10. Default value of n is 2.
If n is 0, the source code will be not structured, the original
structure will be kept.

  BP7SB -d:3 mysource.pas

-<f|p|r|t|v>:<u|l>     Switch case of builtin keywords.
Default is mixed case: WriteLn. In u-upper case: WRITELN, in l-lower
case writeln.

  BP7SB -r:u -t:l -v:u mysource.pas

-k     keep source compact
If you use this option, the BP7SB will not insert space characters,
will not structure record and object definitions.
If mysource.pas looks like:

type
Date=record
D,
M,
Y:Integer;
end;

...

if(a<b)or(c=d)then
begin
writeln((a+b)*c,(d^.e-5)/f[(a+b)*g.h]);
a:=d^.e
end;

If you use the -k option, BP7SB will not make:

{BP7SB mysource.pas}
Type
  Date = Record
           D,
           M,
           Y: Integer;
         End;

...

  If (a < b) Or (c = d) Then
  Begin
    WriteLn ( (a + b) * c, (d^. e - 5) / f [ (a + b) * g. h] );
    a := d^. e
  End;

but you will get:

{BP7SB -k mysource.pas}
Type
  Date=Record
    D,
    M,
    Y:Integer;
  End;

...

  If(a<b)Or(c=d)Then
  Begin
    WriteLn((a+b)*c,(d^.e-5)/f[(a+b)*g.h]);
    a:=d^.e
  End;

-o:file  : use collection of own words
You may give the format of your own words (variables, constants,
types, functions, procedures, ...) in your source code. You may
redefinate also the bultin keywords. BP7SB will use this collection
of own words like the builtin keywords. The words in this file
may have characters only from [a..z,_,A..Z]. All other characters
will interpreted as separator of words. If you use one word several
times, the last version will be used. The contents of line of
collection file be will ignored from # character. The own words
may have a maximal length of 26 characters.

If mywords.txt is:

MyFunction MyCONSTANT
#WRITEln
writeLN, MYvar

You may use:

  BP7SB -o:mywords.txt mysource.pas

-s:m     length of line in the source code
Default (max.) value is 255 characters, BP7SB makes the source not
shorter than 40 characters.

  BP7SB -s:120 mysource.pas

-w     no converting builtin keywords
But you may use your own words and all other functions.

  BP7SB -w mysource.pas

-y:z     position of lines beginning with { or (* character(s)
If the line in the source code begins with comment or compiler
directive, you may definate at which column of source this line
begins. The numbering of columns begins with 1. If you don't use
this option, the lines beginning with { or (* character(s) will
be structured, like other lines.

  BP7SB -y:1 mysource.pas
