Reasoning:
- implementation was unsound -- broke down when I added a fairly
basic macro definition expanding to a struct initializer in a *.c
file.
- made it way too easy (e.g. via otherwise totally innocuous git
commands) to end up with timestamps such that it always ran
MakeHeader.py but never used its output, leading to overbuild noise
when running what should be a null 'make'.
- but mostly: it's just an awkward way of dealing with C code.
It is now accessible via F6 when on tree view (as a bonus, it is
now also reachable via the mouse). The function bar now dynamically
changes to reflect the toggle nature of the tree-view mode (F5)
and the F6 key serves as expand/collapse when on tree mode,
and its previous behavior of bringing up the "Sort By" menu
(which only made sense on non-tree mode). Users wishing to go to
the "Sort By" menu straight from Tree View can still do so with the
"<" and ">" keys (the top-compatible keys for sort selection).
disable useless code in release builds such as runtime type-checking on
dynamic data structures and process fields that are not being computed,
faster(?) method for verifying the process owner (still need to ensure
correctness), don't destroy and create process objects for hidden kernel
threads over and over. Phew. I shouldn't be doing all this today, but I
could not resist.
