Feature Request: Flag for combining header and implementation files.

[bramtechs]

Hello,
if not already possible, it would be nice to have a flag that counts 'C++ Header' together with 'C++'.

$ scc core
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Language                 Files     Lines   Blanks  Comments     Code Complexity
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
C++                         41      8676     1438       514     6724        791
C++ Header                  40      3107      603       342     2162         45

The traditional sloccount command does not make this separation and I personally prefer it that way.

$ sloccount core
SLOC	Directory	SLOC-by-Language (Sorted)
14681   core            cpp=14681


Totals grouped by language (dominant language first):
cpp:          14681 (100.00%)

This is possible now,

scc -i cpp,hpp --count-as hpp:C++ 

Where I include only C++ and its headers, but count the headers as C++.

The catch with this approach is that it uses the C++ rules for counting, so if there was a difference in how they handle quotes or such it will not be accurate, however in this case I don't think it should make a difference.

The result of the above is

$ scc -i cpp,hpp --count-as hpp:C++

I think I should add some form of dotfile support so people can have these sort of overrides in a single place.

Thank you, I've adapted my command to the following, which seems to work.

scc -i cpp,hpp,cxx,hxx,cc,hh,kt --currency-symbol € --sort lines --count-as hpp:C++,hxx:C++,hh:C++ | tee sloc.txt
