For what it's worth: After maintaining a large project over a few years, the maintenance simplicity and ease of updates I gained from a set and written programming style have been great, and one of the biggest improvements was the addition of pure-block formatting with braces around every conditional. At least in my case, it really is a very large improvement in readability and maintainability. I don't do assignments in conditionals either. And you know what? The difference in code size and speed is either nonexistant or minimal at best. IMHO, the extra braces are DEFINATELY worth the extra effort, particularly when sharing code. -->VPutz
