That code is very easy to work with -- after you do the following:
1) comment out every #define except the ones that define the "pascalish"
syntax. You only have to stick an "X" or something before the "#".
2) run the source through cpp with the "preserve comments" option on.
Something like: "/lib/cpp -C -P pop2.c >pop2.readable.c"
3) uncomment all the #defines in the result from #2.
4) run "cb" or "indent" (indent is better) over the result from #3.
5) make the result from #4 your "working source"
