-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is there a preference for 'const char *' over 'char const *'? A quick grep of my locally-modified gnulib repository shows 208 "char const *" vs. 793 "const char *" in the .c and .h files. The GNU Coding Standards offer no help - http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#CPU-Portability has exactly one example apiece of the two styles (one of which is gnulib's error module). POSIX 1003.1 2004 edition XSH exclusively uses 'const char', and I tend to prefer it as well. Should this be clarified in the coding standards?
