I'm not much for sending actual patches as when I do I get accusations
of being an excessively trivial patch submitter.
And I prefer to communicate in code where feasible rather than
expand all the code into words. But if you prefer:
The indentation used for the fallthrough addition in your patch is
incorrect.
In addition, the brace location in this code is poor.
There is an unnecessary open and close brace around the default case.
Please remove the unnecessary braces and move the default case to the
more typical end-of-block location of the switch statement.
I believe the diff I posted was more efficient than the text above.
cheers, Joe
