Obviously, if Argument Clinic didn't produce any output, it's because
it found an error in your input. Keep fixing your errors and retrying
until Argument Clinic processes your file without complaint.
+ For readability, most of the glue code has been generated to a ``.c.h``
+ file. You'll need to include that in your original ``.c`` file,
+ typically right after the clinic module block:
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ #include "clinic/_pickle.c.h"
+
13. Double-check that the argument-parsing code Argument Clinic generated
looks basically the same as the existing code.
