I disagree that this is the biggest obstacle (or even one of the top
10), but then, I use an editor (XEmacs) with syntax highlighting,
brace matching, language-based navigation (jump forward one function),
etc., so those features might be hiding the problem from me.

That said, I do agree that this is a problem.  We probably need a
standard coding style for FlightGear code, preferably one that is
preinstalled in most programmers' editors.  The question is whether we
have anyone with cycles available to lead discussion on this and clean
up the existing code base.


All the best,


David
