Git bitches about no newlines. Github bitches about no newlines. It's pretty clear here that newlines is The Right Thing. It's also pretty clear that irungentoo is running winblows.

Here is a run-down of some C coding standards:

NASA
GNU
Linux kernel
CERT Secure C

Perhaps one should be selected?

Don't do any of this: http://thc.org/root/phun/unmaintain.html

Keep the code clean.

I think that's pretty much our coding standards right now.

I'd vote for GNU C standards. Makes it easy to understand. But I'm not opposing anything. Cert Secure C seemed also interesting.

To quote Torvalds, "First off, I'd suggest printing out a copy of the GNU coding standards,
and NOT read it. Burn them, it's a great symbolic gesture."
