Yup, I used to do the other one too but nowadays, I much prefer not wasting that additional line unless specific circumstances, like I want a kind of "title" in front of a whole block of other definitions with their own comments. Something like: /* * foo management stuff */ /* This puts the bar in the foo */ code code code code /* This does something you don't want to know about */ code code code code But does it realy matter that much ? :-) Cheers, Ben. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
