Some lines are like: # 1 "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/pthread_stack_min.h" 1 3 4 3 means - standard file whereas my header # 1 "/home/andrzej/wazne/gitmy/c-grammars/src/header.h" what is exact meaning of this numbers? I want filter preprocessed file, throw away all lines from standard headers, but to leave preprocessed lines from main C file and all non-standard headers.
