I too agree that it is less readable. Even if I read it in a 80 col screen (which I seldom do), I could easily scroll to the right. This is not code, its a table, and having each item on its own row makes it much easier to read what field goes with what item. -- Steve -- 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/
