Introduction
This document describes a set of conventions The reasons for adopting these conventions are
In this document, we will discuss how code within VIS is organized, how identifiers (functions, macros, structures, etc.) within VIS are named, and finally how code within VIS is maintained. Chapter 2 describes how C code within VIS is divided into packages, a group of files centered around either a data structure or a function. It also introduces the structured comment, a C comment formatted to allow the automatic extraction of documentation. Chapter 3 discusses naming conventions for functions, macros, structures, and variables. These conventions make the type, scope, and function of identifiers evident from their names. Chapter 4 illustrates these conventions with a simple package. Chapter 5 describes maintenance programs for this environment, and Chapter 6 describes how to compile and how to create a new package under VIS.
