I have to agree with Maarten Litmaath.  I suggest that people who care
about layout in their programs should read

	Professional Software
	Volume II Programming Practice
	Henry Ledguard with John Tauer
	Addison-Wesley 1987

The use of braces in C is discussed on pages 111 and 117.  I use the "comb"
style of layout (Ledgard's preference) because it makes sense in all the
languages I use.

Ledgard is no more God than Henry Spencer, but I need a good reason to
disagree with either of them.
