Re: .h.in vs .in.h

Hi John,

What exactly is the problem with the grep regexps and the file extensions?

Regards,

In Octave we have some .h and .cc files that are generated from .h.in
and .cc.in files.  This naming scheme causes trouble if you are trying
to grep for all occurrences of some string in all .h files.  To solve
this problem, gnulib uses .in.h instead.  Is there any objection to
renaming the .h.in and .cc.in files to be .in.h and .in.cc instead?
