+Description of CgeN
+
+cgen produces a class stub in C programming language. The data structure of
+the class is described by some lines which get read from stdin. The stub will
+consist of two files <classname>.h and <classname>.c which emerge in the
+current working directory.
+It will define a struct <ClassnamE> for representing the class data aspects,
+construtor <Classname>_new(), destructor <Classname>_destroy(),
+getter <Classname>_<element>_get() for each structure element.
+Some more functions get added for particular class and element roles.
+
+After first generation, there is no further support by cgen. It simply refuses
+to overwrite existing files because it supposes that those contain code added
+by the human programmer. 
+Those programmer enhancements are supposed to include explanatory comments,
+class specific methods, initial element values and other special precautions
+within the generated functions.
+
+
+Command line options
+
+  -no_stic   prevents usage of stic_dir/s_tools/*.[ch]
+
+  -ansi      generates ANSI C function heads and makes file <classname>.h hold
+             only public definitions: an opaque declaration of the class struct
+             and a list of function prototypes. The definiton of the class
+             struct is then in <classname>_private.h .
+  -global_include filename
+             sets the name of a file which will contain globally necessary
+             declarations. Currently it lists the existence of all class
+             structs.
+
+A class can have one of two roles:
+
+- Standalone class.
+  Input example:
+    my_class
+
+- Listable class, which has pointers to peer instances: .prev and .next
+  Such classes get a list destructor <Classname>_destroy_all() which destroys
+  all members of a list (which is given by any of the list members).
+  There is a function <Classname>_link() which inserts an instance into a list.
+  Input example:
+    -l my_class
+
+Elements have one of the following roles:
+
+- Value. It provides only storage for a C data type (which may be a C pointer
+  despite the role name "value"), a getter method <Classname>_<element>_get(),
+  and a setter method <Classname>_<element>_set().
+  Input examples:
+    -v int i
+    -v int a[100]
+    -v char *cpt
+    -v struct xyz x
+    -v struct xyz *xpt
+
+- Managed. This has to be a pointer to a struct <XyZ> or to char. It will not
+  get attached to an object by the stub's code but its destructor
+  <Xyz>_destroy() will be called by <Classname>_destruct(). In case of (char *)
+  it is supposed that a non-NULL value has been allocated by malloc().
+  Managed (char *) types get a setter function <Classname>_<element>_set()
+  which allocates memory and copies the textstring from its parameter.
+  Input examples:
+    -m struct XyZ *xyzpt
+    -m char *textstring
+
+- Chainlink. A pair of prev-next-style pointers to the own class struct.
+  Function <Classname>_destruct() will unlink the affected instance and
+  put together its link partners.
+  Input example (there must always be two consequtive -c lines):
+    -c struct My_clasS *up
+    -c struct My_clasS *down
+
+- List. A pair of pointers to the struct <XyZ> of a listable class. The first
+  one <ls> holds the start of the list, the second one <eol> holds the end.
+  For insertion of list items there is provided method <Classname>_new_<ls>().
+  The inserted item is then content of the <eol> pointer.
+  <Classname>_destroy() instance calls <Xyz>_destroy_all(). There is a method
+  <Classname>_set_<eol>() which should be used with caution, if ever.
+  Input example (there must always be a -l and a -v line):
+    -l struct XyZ *list_start
+    -v struct XyZ *list_end
+
+
+Example run:
+
+  bin/cgen <<+
+-l class_x
+-v int x
+-m struct Class_Y *y
+-m char *text
+-c struct Class_X *boss
+-c struct Class_X *slave
+-l struct Class_X *providers
+-v struct Class_X *last_provider
