| nice:	please dont write code like that. each funxion should
| 	be entirely on one page. use form feeds to separate pages.
| 	thank you.

I have yet to make form feeds readable or useful in my C code.  Having
a line consisting of ^L in vi isn't much of an improvement.  And I've
found that making EVERY function fit on 54 lines can sometimes make things
even harder to understand.  Don't foist your ideas on C aesthetics off
on others like that, just mention that that's your favorite method.

     Who said you had to be (a) a poor programmer or (b) a security hazard
			       to be a hacker?
