Source Code Formatting

Everybody has their own way of formatting C source code. Rather than impose upon what is comfortable to a submitter, we simply ask that the code be formatted in such a way as to be readable to another programmer. This is deliberately vague--use whatever style is most comfortable for you.

There are two requests, however. First, avoid using RTF source code. Although nifty, non-NeXT users will have trouble with it. Since some parts of the kit are still useful even without NEXTSTEP, authors should be respectful of non-NEXTSTEP users who might wish to benefit from the MiscKit. Second, most MiscKit source code looks best with Edit.app set to 4 spaces per tab stop. We recommend that everyone set Edit to four spaces per tab so that code formatting will be better preserved when others are viewing it. (ie: Do both your formatting and viewing with Edit.app set this way).
