Dogma Zero
You should only follow your own Dogmata.
Surely. But sharing ideas about what is good still is a good thing.
It helps form individual ideas about it. If a majority of folks agree
on a certain style then it makes a(n unofficial) standard. Thats why
i bumped in. And thanks again for sharing.
Every self-respecting Dogma-collection has to be provocative (and shouldn't be taken too serious).
As above. Of cause :-)
The B&W Dogma definitely is a style question
I think it all is about style (with in (this) culture).
IMO color is best used to indicate where the action is [...]
Agreed. That's what i tent to do my self.
And for emphasising certain code paths, subpatches probably are
even better [...]
Sometimes though im inconsistent with it, as I sometimes find it
nice to have "the guts" right at hand, and at the same time have the
"conventional"/obvious controls (for that given patch) highlighted.
Also some help patches uses [cvn] quite clever to highlight and
separate the object from the needed surroundings, which i a learning
situation is better then hiding the surroundings in a subpatch.
This makes this email a loop, as I'm now ready (or you/one might find
it appropriate) to be refer me to Dogma Zero again.
I'll exit the loop instead.
Best, Steffen
