i don't know where you learned English composition, but I can't follow your critique. are you pointing out your preferences (which may well match gnu or bsd standards, i don't know tell me) or things that actually make a difference? Did he break emacs auto-indent? Are you pointing out all the flaws or the correct ways, i'm having to eyeball diff. Use more of your words.
while
do
doesn't seem substantially worse/confusing compared to while;do unless you have some reason?
spacing out ;; does it make a difference? or do you like things spaced out?
etc.

- yesenadam 4y agoI thought it was "professional", helpful, and a great comment. I didn't think yours was constructive, just unhelpfully treating a different formatting style as objectively worse, in an unfriendly way. "Be kind"! It was also hard to parse, as the GP pointed out. edit: You changed your comment after I wrote this. Now it mentions that you flagged the GP. That's ridiculous.
- sacnoradhq 4y agoYou have way too much time on your hands and seem determined to argue nonconstructively. Have a good one.
