Question

You are creating a programme for several platforms, which is the issue. As a result, the code is dotted with several #ifdef lines. In fact, there are so many that the code is difficult to comprehend and the design is unsightly.
For instance:
void send_cmd(void)
{
 send_cmd_start();
#ifdef FE_TEXTURE
 send_texture();
#endif /* FE_TEXTURE */
#ifdef FE_COLOR
 send_background();
 if (foreground != TRANSPARENT)
 send_foreground();
#endif /* FE_COLOR */
#ifdef FE_SIZE
 if (size != 0)
 send_size();
#endif /* FE_SIZE */
#ifdef FE_REPLAY
 if (prev_cmd == '\0') {
 prev_cmd = cur_cmd;
 prev_param = cur_param;
 }
#endif /* FE_REPLAY */
 send_cmd_end();
}
