I like multiple commands per line and its not true that it always decrease code readability, sometimes it can allow to write one coherent piece of code in one line (less than 80 characters). This makes code more coherent and easy to edit with my favorite VIM :-) What I dont like about Python for instance is the one-command-per-line and the division code block with tabs - this is why I have started to indent code with one space, no matter what language (some editors can replace tab with multiple spaces and whole program structure is gone, who invented this sh$(# anyway). Just my sixteen in this interesting topic :-) Best regards :-) Tomek Btw. my 8-bit Atari has now 37' LCD HD 100Hz display and its not a teletype haha ;-P :-) :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
