-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

ATAC was written by some folks at BellCore, who're working on a newer
version (licensed).  I modified the version that they made available for
free so that it'll run on Linux with gcc 2.7.0 (mostly by accommodating
the non-standard features of gcc), and uploaded it to sunsite.unc.edu
(now in Incoming).  I've found it very useful for setting up regression
tests for my programs.

ATAC measures how thoroughly a program is tested by a set of tests using
data flow coverage techniques, identifies areas that are not well
tested, identifies overlap among tests, and finds minimal covering test
sets.  Atac displays C source code, highlighting code fragments not
covered by test executions.
