"C Style: Standards and Guidelines" Now a Website

I first bought this book "C Style: Standards and Guidelines", by David Straker, many years ago in the 1990's namely for its ideas on Programming Commenting and Naming Conventions. It probably has some of the best ideas about the topic I have ever seen, and with some imagination easily have its principles adapted to other languages.

Now its on the web, meaning I do not have to carry it around physically anymore!

My pet topics are:

particularly,

Commenting - http://syque.com/cstyle/ch4.htm
Naming - http://syque.com/cstyle/ch5.htm

Also Implementing Standards is a good read too, particular for the sceptics:

Thanks to David for putting it online!
