FixAddon builds a cfgPatches class from a config.cpp
specifically, it REBUILDS units[]= and weapons[]= to tell the truth
Usage
FixAddon [-options] config.cpp/bin [>some.txt]
The >some.txt writes the cfgPatches output to file.
options
Q force use quotes
quotes are not required for strings unless they are numeric or contain spaced words
R Use CRLF. a single newline is default
T Tab indent. otherwise spaced indent
M Multiline array output instead of all in one line
N no overview
P No protected classes listed
Y assume externs are protected and inherited classes as such
Z assume externs are public and inherited classes as such
note that i am not that impressed nor interested in options ZY and they wont always work as advertised (for embedded externs). the thinking here is wrong. we need to come up with a database of declared addons so that we can even, set the nature of RequiredAddons[]={…..};
Methodology
FixAddon builds class entries based SOLELY on whether they are public (scope=2) or not. Where not declared explicitly, it derives the information from inherited classes
External definitions
Class anything;
Are automatically deemed to be protected or private classes. (there is no way of telling)
Output
After creating a 'new' cfgvehicles class, fixaddon reports which classnames differ from the original (if any)
