At times, digging through some of the older code (ie. vsprocs.c), it is very hard to 
read due to the veyr inconsistent (and sometimes completely absent) indentation.

I'd like to re-indent some of it, however I hate to make my local checkout that 
different from the repository, cause it makes any potential diffs that much less 
likely to be accepted. (i.e. it would be easier to work on locally if it were 
re-indented, but I don't want to do that if it means I have to hand-rewrite the diff 
to be suitable for application.)

Would developers be willing to come up with a indent config file that would be an 
accepted re-indentation of the code? I don't think we'd necessarily want to do that to 
everything, just to specific files as they are worked on.

I personally would like to see this:

-cli4
-di0
-nbc
-nlp
-bad
-sob
-bap
-bl0
-bli0
-cs
-npcs
-ncdb
-nsc
-ci0
-i4
-ip0
-npsl
-ts4

but I'm sure others have different preferences. It doesn't really matter much to me, 
but SOME sort of indentation would make things alot easier to read than the current 
code.

Derrick, would you accept a diff that did nothing other than reformat certain files?

Ideally, if there were a indent config file preference, it would be checked into cvs 
somewhere, or as a helper script that passed all the desired options.
