+
+Tracking is used to put some marks within a copy of the source and
+in the log file. uncrustify generate a HTML file with the marks.
+
+Using a browser, one can see where, which options are working.
+
+The command option is:
+
+uncrustify --tracking space:Track.html -c config-FILE -f source-FILE -L A 2>A.txt
+uncrustify --tracking nl:Track.html -c config-FILE -f source-FILE -L A 2>A.txt
+uncrustify --tracking start:Track.html -c config-FILE -f source-FILE -L A 2>A.txt
+
+Tracking puts a red "M" in the source to show where the options are working.
+A tracking number is used and written in the Track.html file and the output file A.txt
+to make possible to link the changes together.
+
+An example:
+
+tracking.cpp
+{
+ a = b + 111-55;
+}
+
+The config file:
+
+indent_with_tabs = 0
+sp_arith = force
+sp_assign = force
+
+The tracking file is:
+
+<html>
+<head>
+ <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
+ <title>Uncrustify: where do the Spaces options work</title>
+</head>
+<body lang="en-US">

+}
+</pre>
+</body>

+
+Use it with a browser and you can see the red "M"s.
+Let put the cursor on the "M"s, and you see the tracking number and the option used.
