Imported from Basser Department of Computer Science, University of Sydney?
Piers Lauder was mad keen on this diabolical but extremely logical indenting
scheme.
Example:
if
(
(id->id_type == NULL)
||
(
(id->id_type->x_what == xt_arrayof)
&&
(item->x_left->x_what == xt_arrayof)
&&
(id->id_type->x_subtype == item->x_left->x_subtype)
&&
(id->id_type->x_flags & XIS_DIMLESS)
)
)
...
Try that one any other way. :-)
Stephen.
