## Description

exo-csource is a small utility that generates C code containing arbitrary data, useful for compiling texts or other data directly into programs.

## Invocation

exo-csource either takes as input one file name to generate code for, or, using the `--build-list` option, a list of (`name`, `file`) pairs to generate code for a list of images into named variables.

### Options

`-h`, `--help` | Print brief help and exit.
`-v`, `--version` | Print version information and exit.
`--extern` | Generate extern symbols.
`--static` | Generate static symbols (default).
`--name=identifier` | Specifies the `identifier` name (prefix) for the generated variables (only used if `--build-list` was not specified as well).
`--build-list` | Enables (`name`, `file`) pair parsing mode.
`--output=identifier` | Prints the output to `identifier` instead of stdout (only used if `--build-list` was not specified as well).
