Right, definitely so.

But merely referencing 'coding style' is ambiguous at best.

btw:

ASCII commonly refers to '{' and '}', the curly brackets, to be braces
and '[' and ']', the square brackets, to be brackets.

It might be clearer to use that terminology.

belts and braces, etc...

cheers, Joe

----------------

+Bracket rules
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Brackets should be omitted only if the statement which follows 'if', 'for',
+'while' etc. is truly a single line::
+
+	if (foo)
+		do_something();
+
+The following is not considered to be a single line statement even
+though C does not require brackets::
+
+	for (i = 0; i < end; i++)
+		if (foo[i])
+			do_something(foo[i]);
+
+Adding brackets around the outer loop enhances the reading flow::
+
+	for (i = 0; i < end; i++) {
+		if (foo[i])
+			do_something(foo[i]);
+	}
