Python script to add headers to the top of source files.

Python script to add headers to the top of source files.

#!/usr/bin/env python3

# add headers to .h, .cpp, .c and .ino files automatically.
# the script will first list the files missing headers, then
# prompt for confirmation. The modification is made inplace.
#
# usage:
#   add-headers.py <header file> <root dir>
#
# The script will first read the header template in <header file>,
# then scan for source files recursively from <root dir>.
