    Rick,

    There are rules that are handled by the pretty printer. So I don't
    think you need to worry about it too much. Just make sure you follow
    some indentation rule and don't go over 80 characters wide. These two
    rules just simply the review.

    John

    John, I have heard rumors that there are strict formatting rules for MOF
    files. Examples of rumor: no line shall be longer than 72 characters;
    indenting shall be three blanks; no Description line shall be longer
    than 60 characters; etc. We (PWG) are about to embark on a journey of
    many MOFs, so I would like to avoid such mistakes.

    Are there written rules that I haven't found? Unwritten rules? A
    little help, please. Thanks. Just trying to be kind to the editor.
    :-)
