C Style and Coding Standard

[jagottsicher]

Due to the expected system proximity to (mostly) POSIX-compliant operating systems, we believe that C and C++ is the right choice for the source code because it has the highest degree of portability and the widest adoption for system programming.

At least in the early days and for a version that can give first impressions of the project, we rely on the curses/ncurses libraries.

At this time we do not insist on a particular C style or coding standard but suggest sticking to this one as much as possible. It is likely that the participating coders will establish a style and/or agree on standards. Well, keep your fingers crossed!
