Hi Simon,
You wrote to me:

You missed the point :-(. Not like that (in a Tommy Cooper voice )
SA>Ie;
SA>{
SA>if (stuff)
SA> {
SA> if (more_stuff)
SA> {
SA> }
SA> }
SA>}
but like this (assume appropriate declarations for all variables):
{
if (condition)
{
if ((some_long_winded_condition == TRUE) &&
(Yet_another_long_winded_condition == FALSE))
{
fread (long_winded_buffer_name,sizeof(tediously_long_name),
number_of_items,file_reference);
}
}
}
Such that the continuation line is on an 8 character indent and always
at least 8 characters after the code indent level.
SA>Coding style wars, anyone? MCSIBTYCS? :)
No thanks. It'd upset the moderator and is a total waste of bandwidth!
Just as long as I don't have to use "One True Brace", I don't care!
