#
# This is a pretty brute-force approach. It takes several hours to run on a top-spec MacbookAir.
# It also produces some false positives, so it requires careful examination and testing of the results.
#
# Algorithm Summary:
# First we find all #defines,
# then we search for each of them in turn,
# and if we find only one instance of a #define, we print it out.
#
# Algorithm Detail:
# (1) find #defines, excluding the externals folder
# (2) extract just the constant name from the search results
# (3) trim blank lines
# (4) sort the results, mostly so I have an idea how far along the process is
# (5) for each result:
# (6) grep for the constant
# (7) use awk to to check if only one match for a given constant was found
# (8) if so, generate a sed command to remove the #define
#
