Surely the 8-character indents are made up of spaces. Does it mean "spaces other than 8-space blocks"? In any case, how does it synch with the following chapter's statement that continuations " are placed substantially to the right" - isn't that done with spaces, too? Or am I just totally spacing out on what was meant? scott - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
