OK, I have modified entab.c in a private patch to only process text
inside comments, and not process leading whitespace, patch attached. I
basically ran 'entab -o -t4 -d' on the C files.
The result are here, in context, plain, and unified format:
http://momjian.us/expire/entab_comment.cdiff
http://momjian.us/expire/entab_comment.pdiff
http://momjian.us/expire/entab_comment.udiff
and their line counts:
89741 entab_comment.cdiff
26351 entab_comment.pdiff
50503 entab_comment.udiff
I compute 6627 lines as modified. What I did not do is handle _only_
cases with periods before the tabs. Should I try that?
