Source files are .c, .h and .lcl files.  If there is no suffix,
   Splint will look for <file>.c and <file>.lcl.

Use splint -help <topic or flag name> for more information

Topics:

   annotations (describes source-code annotations)
   comments (describes control comments)
   flags (describes flag categories)
   flags <category> (describes flags in category)
   flags all (short description of all flags)
   flags alpha (list all flags alphabetically)
   flags full (full description of all flags)
   mail (information on mailing lists)
   modes (show mode settings)
   parseerrors (help on handling parser errors)
   prefixcodes (character codes in namespace prefixes)
