Well, how do you line the buggers (comments) up? <grin> That's what got me to just comment the beginning of functions. If (in C) the variable names are explicit enough, then somebody who can read C (well enough to care) should be able to figure out what the function errr. HOW the function does what it says it does in the comment at the beginning of the function. I used to have the very bad habit (desire for 'neatness', I guess) of lining up my comment deviders… so… /* this is comment 1 */ /* this is comment 2 */ <shudder> –Eet–
