Once compiled and linked, the so-called C-program is not anymore a C-program (the sources are separated from the executable).Quote:

The only point is to have a complete list of source files. It could help if you have an access to the makefile and parse it. Quite a job...

It is very vague as to what is required.
If you meant about redirecting the output of a program into a file you can readily print, use this example:
Code:c:\> dir > output.txt
DOS/Windows:
Code:FILE *pp = fopen("LPT1", "w");
fprintf(pp, "I am printing!\n\f");
fclose(pp);
