NAME
       fixincludes - Reduce the number of #includes in KDE source files

SYNOPSIS
       fixincludes [-v, --verbose] [-e, --experimental] [-m, --modify] [file]
                   [--help]

DESCRIPTION
       fixincludes tries to reduce the number of #includes in C++ source
       files. Much of it's processing is specific to KDE sources and so it
       might not work so well with sources for non-KDE applications.

       The following problems are identified by fixincludes:

       o   Including headers that are no longer supported but which exist for
           compatibility with older Qt/KDE versions;

       o   Including the same file multiple times.

       There is also an experimental mode which tries removing each #include
       one at a time (with a few exceptions) to see whether the source still
       compiles. Note that this experimental mode will modify the original
       sources.

       By default the sources will not be modified; the identified problems
       will simply be written to standard output.

       The list of C++ sources to examine should be given on the command-line.
       If no files are given, all C++ sources in or beneath the current
       directory will be examined (with the exception of directories whose
       Makefile.am contains -UQT_NO_COMPAT or -UKDE_NO_COMPAT)

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

OPTIONS
       -v, --verbose
           Verbose mode. Additional debugging output is written to standard
           output.

       -e, --experimental
           Experimental mode, as described above in detail. Note that this
           option implies --modify.

       -m, --modify
           As well as writing messages to standard output, actually modify the
           original sources to fix any problems that were found.
