According to my tests it does not matter.
Btw I should replace short int, with short, to allow catch short intergers.

If you mean split line to be below 80 chars, OK.

Yes.
Generally I want to catch all assignments of signed function result to unsigned var.
In this script I have implemented it this way:
1. Look for all assignments 'unsigned = signed' (rs rule).
2. Check if signed from rs rule looks as a function call.

Is there better way to do it?
