+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+svn change-log:
 
-Indentation of {}:
-------------------
+Use whole sentences begins with Capital letter. For each modification use new line.
+Or you can write the theme, colon and then every change on new line, begin
+with "- ".
+
+Example:
+
+I done some bugfixes.
+Library:
+- I change the interface
+- added some new functions
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+sources:
 
-while (...)
+Indentation: tabs
+Names of variables & functions: small_letters
+      of defines: CAPITAL_LETTERS
+
+Try to use explicit variable and function names.
+
+
+Try not to use macros.
+Use EITHER "struct foo" OR "foo"; never both
+
+Conditions, cycles:
+
+if (<cond>)
 	{
+	<command>;
 	...
-	}
-
-if (...)
-	{
-	...
+	<command>;
 	}
 else
 	{
+	<command>;
 	...
+	<command>;
+	}
+                                                                                
+if (<cond_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_long> &&
+    <cond2very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_long)
+    <the_only_command>;
+
+switch (<var>)
+	{
+	case 0:
+		<command>;
+		<command>;
+		break;
+	case 1:
+		<command>; break;
 	}
 
-Spaces around operators:
-------------------------
-
-i = 2;
-x = i * (j / 2);
-
+for (i = 0; i <= 10; i++)
+	{
+	<command>;
+	...
+	<command>;
+	}
+	
 
-Space after comma:
-------------------
-func(a, b, c);
+Functions:
 
-Functions without any parameter should be declared using void:
---------------------------------------------------------------
-gint function(void)
+int bar(<var_def>, <var_def>, <var_def>)
 {
-...
+	<command>;
+	...
+	<command>;
+
+	return 0; // i.e. SUCCESS; if error, you must return minus <err_no>
 }
 
-Use glib types:
----------------
-Please use glib types when possible (ie. gint and gchar instead of int and char)
-.
+void bar2(void)
+{
+	<command>;
+	...
+	<command>;
+}
+
+Pragma: (Indentation 2 spaces)
+
+#ifdef ENABLE_NLS
+#  undef _
+#  define _(String) (String)
+#endif /* ENABLE_NLS */
+
+Headers:
 
-Use glib functions:
--------------------
+#ifndef _FILENAME_H
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Use spaces around every operator (except ".", "->", "++" and "--");
+        unary operator '*' and '&' are missing the space from right;
+        (and also unary '-').
+As you can see above, parentheses are closed to inside, i.e. " (blah blah) "
+    In "function(<var>)" there are no space before '('. 
+You MAY use more tabs/spaces than you OUGHT TO (according to this CodingStyle), if
+        it makes your code nicer in being verticaly indented.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Use glib types when possible (ie. gint and gchar instead of int and char).
 Use glib functions when possible (ie. g_ascii_isspace() instead of isspace()).
 Check if used functions are not deprecated.
 
-Others:
--------
-Check twice the indentation and spurious whitespaces.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-Try to use explicit variable and function names.
