Testing the text summary report

Regression testing was used throughout the project on the textual summary report. This was in the form of a Perl script, rtesting.pl, which will call cca.pl for each .c and .h file in the test directory. For each test file cca.pl will be called using -E, -D and -C switches to create the longest and most complete textual summary files. The textual summary files will be the test filename with a .out attached. Each of these output files will need to be hand-verified for correct output. Once checked, they will need to be renamed to the test filename with a .v attached. These .v files will be used to compare future test runs for correctness. All .v files will be checked into the RCS and checked out with the test cases.
