Kris Borer suggested a SmPL script which can generate (only) patches
so far by the usual application of the Coccinelle software.
I assume that this approach was limited just because Julia Lawall
indicated that this functionality would be sufficient for a while.

The documentation for the command "make coccicheck" mentions
additional modes.

They refer to specific output formats for the result from the
static source code analysis.

* How often would you like to look at proposed changes by the
  Org mode format (of Emacs)?
  http://orgmode.org/

* Do you find the report mode also useful occasionally?


Are you interested to get further output variants?

Examples:
* CSV
* XML
