 int flag = 0, flag1 = 0;

 fstream in( filename );

 if ( !in ) {

  cout << filename << " does not exist!" << endl;

 } else {

  while ( getline(in, lineString,'\n')) {

   if (lineString.substr(0,3) == "// ")

    flag = 1;

   if (lineString.substr(0,3) == "***")

    flag1 = 1;

   if (flag == 1 && flag1 == 0) {

    lineString.erase(0,2);

    lineString = "   " + lineString;

   }

   fileString += lineString + '\n';

  }

 in.close();

 ofstream out(filename, ios::ate );

 out.seekp(ios::beg);

 out << fileString;

 out.close();

 }

}

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {

 char fileName[80];

if ( argc > 1 ) {

 strcpy (fileName, argv[1] );

 process(fileName);

 } else {

  printf ("Missing arguments\n");

 }

 return 0;

}

You need to convert the above code to an executable using any C++ IDE [say Microsoft Visual Studio 6] and use the same in the property CG::File::InvokePostProcessor
