I adjusted the semantic patch so that the indentation of function parameters/arguments would only change if the length of the function name changes. Do you think this could be of more general interest in the Linux kernel? Since the semantic patch works pretty well, I could add it to the scripts/coccinelle directory? Previously, however, I got some negative feedback about this change, because people felt that the new names hid the actual behavior, so I didn't pursue it. julia -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hwmon" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
