I've bookmarked it after you posted it and listened to it yesterday.
Certainly something I'll listen to more often 
Going to recommend to some friends as well

Dreamy, but so far I like what I'm hearing - thanks

I implemented a special feature for one of our customers in the current generation of one of our products. A couple of weeks ago they asked to have it added to the older generation as well. No problem, right?
Wrong.
I've backfit about 80% of the code changes, and I just realized something. The older code base uses K&R braces. The new code base has been reformatted for Allman braces. I've been copy/pasting bits of code for the last several days, and just noticed.
I'm doomed.

Despite @SanderRossel's objections, this is why i use braceless if statements. There's nothing to convert.

I don't even know how to respond to that 
And I had to look up both K&R and Allman style, didn't even know that was a thing 
To me it's the .NET or Java(Script) style
I've also just learned there are very perverse, yet "official", methods of bracing you code 
|

|

You should do this religiously by creating a function for each if or else clause that needs more than one line of code!

Reminds me of Microsoft .NET's ForEach() method

For someone too lazy to look it up, what’s the diff?

Never mind - I looked it up, and I use allman... I never knew there was a name for it

K&R: left brace goes at the end of the line
Allman: left brace goes on its own line, not indented from previous line
|
|
|
|

There's a good summary of all the styles here:
Indentation style - Wikipedia[^]
I always thought my braces style was unique: Now I see it even has a name (Allman). Well, you live and sometimes you even learn!

Brian Kernighan is a man.
Dennis Ritchie is a man.
Hence K&R consists of only men.
QED
K&R braces are All-man braces.
Problem solved.

Since I took up Visual Studio, I've been programming C#. In C# context, there is no similar issues: You just set up the line break, indentation rules and bracing style you want, delete and retype the closing brace, and that is it.
I assume that VS can do the same for C / C++ code.
Sure, if your source file style is to make every function, no matter how tiny, into its own source file (with typically 60 lines of copyleft, 20 lines of #include and 10 lines of C code), then you probably have a several thousand files to open. All C++ code I have been handling had the entire class definition, with all its methods, in a single file. If you have several thousand classes, then you are talking about a huge system! (Or possibly a poorly chosen class structure.)
