Ok, since comparing gperciva-fixcc and gperciva-astyle branches didn't
work for me, plese verify whether i understood correctly:
- we are discussing which program we will use for code formatting, not
the actual style
- each of the suggested programs uses style similar to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style#GNU_style
so whatever we choose, the results will be quite similar. Right?
