I'm looking for a *good* version of cb(1) for MS-DOS.  I have tried
the C Users' Group one, but it isn't flexible enough for my tastes:
It just prints the code out the way *it* wants to, rather than the
way *I* prefer to.  Here is a sample of my coding style, if it
helps any:

/*
 * hello.c: Prints "hello, world! (I'm #1!)" and exits.
 */

#include <stdio.h>
#include <process.h>

void main(void);

void main()
{
        char    *first,
                *second;
        int      i;

        first = "hello";
        second = "world";
        i = 1;

        if(strcmp(first,"hello") == 0) {
                printf("%s, %s! (I'm #%d!)\n", first, second, i);
                exit(0);
        } else {
                printf("We got troubles, Boss!\n");
                exit(1);
        }
}

I'd like something that will come as close to the above as possible.
Configurability is a plus (something like the cb(1) in SysV.3 would
be fine)

I'm also looking for a *good* version of lint(1) for MS-DOS.  I haven't
actually seen *any* copies of this floating around, so I'll probably
take what I can get...

Source code is a plus, especially if it's in C.  I'd like this to be
PD, freeware, or shareware if possible (I don't want to go running
to MKS if at all possible: I'm sure their products are good, but
they're also expensive).  Thanks...
