... for the last vestiges of the old Republic have been swept away. My legacy C++ code was written in K&R brace style, as the gods intended. I write my C# using the vertical brace Allman[^] style, thereby appeasing those gods. The last week or so I've been doing significant work in the legacy code, and I can't stand it anymore. I've written a VS macro(*) to reformat K&R to vertical braces Allman form. (*) Yes, I know that VS can reformat code for you. The built-in stuff in VS2008 is pretty lame.

I believe one of the reasons K&R was popular, was that it saves vertical space, and therefore paper when you print your code. But how often do you print code these days? I cannot remember the last time I needed a hard copy of my code.
I print my code, that's part of why I use so much vertical space. Room for notes, underlining, circling, etc.

Dave KreskowiakHmm. Did a quick Wikipedia check; I'm calling 'Allman style' 'vertical braces'. Apparently I'm already nuts.

Yes, but ... tabs or spaces ?
Tabs originally, now spaces. The group couldn't agree on a tab size :rolleyes: .

The more modern concern is ability to maximize the amount of code on a power point slide. [... to make a tangential point, the 'print' aspect is also the reason to use spaces and not tabs.]

On rare occasions I will still print a page or two of code when I'm refactoring C++. That's never necessary in C#, because the refactoring tools are so much better.
