I posted this question a while back in comp.lang.c.  Perhaps I was in 
the wrong place.  In case you've all read this before, I'll keep it
short.  Basically I'm looking for standards for C code.  Things such as
naming conventions (e.g. all structures end with _s) and code 
conventions (how things get indented; do the static variables come before
the globals?; etc.).  I know that it might seem that this is getting 
picky, and it is, but I've found that it greatly helps when several
people are working on a big project and need to read each other's code.
Anyone know of any standards of this kind?  I'll take anything, even if
it's just a couple of suggestions on what you do.  Thanks!  

Pete
