Re: [OT] Coding style nazis



Hi Andy,

Whatever style you choose, make sure you at least go with the indenting
of blocks of code within the braces etc. Where you put the braces etc,
does not matter, just find your own style.

Try reading a large programme with no indentation at all and you will
see why.
