What? What's a pretty severe nit pick. Especially for 30 year old C code.

They didn't have no gofmt back then. We are spoiled today with the extreme consistency :) the skill of reading code includes reading even when it deviates from one's own preferred formatting (within reason, maliciously formatted code can be challenging, to say the least).

I must respectfully disagree about this being an issue worthy of anyone's attention, especially yours and mine.

Didn't need gofmt as plenty of IDEs and editors had automatic indentation and syntax colouring already implemented.

1993 wasn't the dark ages you know.
