Hi Gary,

Regarding code style I have a script that will make the code more FreeBSD KNF 
compliant. I just haven't had time to work so much at it. If you think you 
can do better I will gladly accept patches and improvements into my SVN repo.

When I started out on ISDN4BSD more than 6 years ago everything was greek to 
me. Now I understand it all. Maybe that is the problem. You have to spend 
more time to understand others code ?
