I have learned not to fuss about the particulars of required style as long as I have the following: 1. a simple way to exclude sections of code manually 2. a style check integrated into "make check" 3. a makefile target that automatically restyles all source so that "make check" will pass. Only the files that need to be modified are touched. This runs only when requested, never as a prerequisite of any other target. — Dan
