I was asked for recommendations on books regarding C language programming
style.  I asked around and found there to be general interest in having 
one but no concrete recommendations.  The intended audience if for
skilled programmers who are to cooperate on a large program together and 
who would like to establish reasonable rules of programming style.  Obviously,
broader recommendations regarding system development won't hurt but
the emphasis should be on C rather than on algorithms.  There is no need
for books giving C syntax or introductory programming books unless they
emphasize style in a formal and reasoned way.  If this has appeared before
I'd appreciate receiving a digest of the responses.

If people want to know what I find out please let me know and I'll 
forward to you the responses I receive.

Thanks in advance,
Dan
