Throwing in my own unasked-for bikshed opinion ;-)
I agree with Thierry that it's more readable since this way the key and
the value can be lined up easily. That's also possible with the
single-line case/return like you do with some more tabs, but usually means
all the lines overflow the 80 limit badly. So only really works for small
defines/values. So my rule of thumb is
- go with single-line case/return and align them
- but break the lines if they would be too long.
Now back to doing useful stuff for me.
Cheers, Daniel
