Hi Andrew,

Like you, I too prefer the K&R2 style of function prototypes and find
the argument for /^foo inconsistent otherwise we'd see

    typedef struct {
        ...
    }
    foo;

    bar *
    barlist[NUM_BAR];

since finding a non-function definition can be just as useful.

Cheers,


Ralph.
