In my office, coding standards are to be adhered by regardless of the number of the people *currently* working on the project, because it's highly likely someone else will be working on the project at a later date, if even just to provide bug fixes for it. -- Rob Bernardo, Pacific Bell UNIX/C Reusable Code Library Email: ...![backbone]!pacbell!pbhyf!rob OR rob@pbhyf.PacBell.COM Office: (415) 823-2417 Room 4E750A, San Ramon Valley Administrative Center Residence: (415) 827-4301 R Bar JB, Concord, California
