:well what would your prefered style be?
:
    There is no single style that adequately describes a human readable
    format for structures.  It depends on the structure.  It is best to
    leave it vague style.9.  Even the stuff in style.9 right now in
    regards to structures is mostly junk.  Nobody follows any of it (except
    maybe the guy who wrote it), and for good reason.  Put a tab after
    the 'struct' keyword in a field definition?  Only if I really wanted
    to make it unreadable!
