Hi Larry,
I *much* prefer sbuf.st_size than whatever.size, the
former is
instantly a stat structure, the later is a "whatever".
It's awful. :-)
st.st_size `stutters' and that jars when reading in my head.
If st.size isn't clear from context, then stbuf.size probably is.
Ditto ar_hdr->uid versus hdr->ar_uid.
There's a hierarchy to walking the data structure, and that should be
represented in the identifiers. So big.little, not b.bg_little.

Cheers, Ralph.
