Ah, so it's the lack of a defined style guideline that's the problem? That got me too back in the beginning. The Official Wine Code Style is something like this: 1. New file: whatever the author wants 2. Existing file: whatever others did This takes some getting used to, and since 2. isn't strictly enforced, we sometimes end up with colliding styles. Only one time that I remember did we manage to sneak in a bunch of formatting changes (into shell32, which was a real mess of conflicting styles.) I guess that could be documented better, though a quick google turns up statements to that effect: http://www.kerneltraffic.org/wine/wn20010305_85.html#4 http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2004-July/028483.html It's also in the developer guide, though a bit buried: http://winehq.org/site/docs/winedev-guide/style-notes The fact that I couldn't find the darn thing quickly is a problem ;) --Juan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
