Research direction

Find where compiler flags are processed in the web interface, add a checkbox to enable -E preprocessing, and modify the output display logic to show preprocessed C code when the flag is active. Test by enabling the -E flag and verifying the output window displays the preprocessed source.

Description

backend frontend

From @Trevor89 on 2021-11-07:

Is it possible to output the pre-processed C (using -E) to the output window if said flag is enabled (might need to use a checkbox so JS knows to switch files)?
this would - for me at least- mean that decomp.me replaces all the functionality of querams site.
Uses for -E include live macro programming (which I did on querams site before it broke).
