  yeah, that's religious, good luck arguing about this :-)

  I use this for libxml2/libxslt code, so far nobody complained:
paphio:~/XML -> cat ~/bin/cb
#!/bin/sh
indent -bad -bap -bbb -bli4 -br -ce -brs -cs -i4 -l75 -lc75 -nut -sbi4 -psl -saf -sai -saw -sbi4 -ss -sc -cdw -cli4 -npcs -nbc
paphio:~/XML ->

  That allowed me to keep a consistent code look. Consistency may
actually be more important than the setting selected.

   my 2 eurocents,

Daniel
