 - Think about the types you use. If a value cannot sensibly be
   negative, do not use "int", but use "unsigned".
 
-- Do not use types like "short". They *never* make sense. Use ints,
-  longs, long longs, all in unsigned+signed fashion, and the fixed
-  size types uint32_t and so on, as well as size_t, but nothing
-  else. Do not use kernel types like u32 and so on, leave that to the

+- Use "char" only for actual characters. Use "uint8_t" or "int8_t"
