actually, quite apart from the understandable desire to
have improvements in the programming environment,
i have to say that given C's syntax, i still find
	static int
	burble(stuff)
	{
easier to spot at a glance than
	static int burble(stuff)
	{
even when the aim is not to grep for things, but perhaps
that's just me.  i thought lcc was
a good program, but i found it harder to read for that reason.
(i know, i know, i could use something that
puts the function names in chartreuse.)

Fair enough. I'd just like some way to find function definitions without
changing the way I lay them out. grep ^nurdge *.c does have the appeal of
simplicity, but I don't like adjusting my style to suit the machine.
