( that was in my previous incar- > nation when I run SCO ). There is a 'c' interpreter program out there. There is also a branch path analysis program written in C++ out there. The major piece for a cscope is the lexical analysis for token classification. There are sever PD C compilers under UCB style license that you could use for a starting point if you didn't want to use GCC. One note is that the resulting program should allow the use of multiple variable reference files (databases). This was a recent mod to the USL cscope that increased the utility of the program for tree structured source heirarchies with sources spanning multiple physical directories.
