From 2e04ef76916d1e29a077ea9d0f2003c8fd86724d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2009 16:03:45 -0600 Subject: lguest: fix comment style I don't really notice it (except to begrudge the extra vertical space), but Ingo does. And he pointed out that one excuse of lguest is as a teaching tool, it should set a good example.
